Hi. Im pretty much a newbie with all things android. I have just updated my HTC ONE X (HTC__622) to the official jelly bean update. And I wanted to root my phone and apply a custom rom to it. I have been browsing the forums but its just got me more confused on which rom to use. Can someone suggest a good rom for battery, stability with camera, wifi and the usual stuff working fine.?? Also im a big fan of the Stock android People and Dialer app.. So which roms support that? Can I get that with Sense rom too?.. Thanks.. Eagerly awaiting to flash
I've settled on OrDroid (now on version 11.3) but the ARHD one is also good. These are both Sense ROMS that generally look stock but arent. Def a good start both fast and stable.
Hello,
You can root your device using the method given on htcdev.com. One of the simplest and most trusted methods.
As for ROMs, Youll get maximum battery life and stability on sense ROMs only. Performance, battery and stability wise sense ROMs a way better than AOSP ROMs. So I would suggest sense ROMs.
But its upto your taste and liking in the end!

You can not root your device on the htcdev site !!! You can only unlock the bootloader there, it gives you the right to flash a custom recovery and therefore custom roms !!! Please give the proper info
thanks guys for ur help. yes i have unlocked the bootloader from htc dev, installed cwm and rooted via superuser.zip...
before ur suggestion of ordroid or arhd i tried out renovate. and now im downloading ordroid.... read somewhere its more stable.
also im missing the android stock people's app and the dialer with full screen calling (i have seen screenshots of it on CM10) on these sense rom.
i really dont want to miss out on the sense cam and stability... can anyone suggest any mods for the aosp ppl app or fullscreen calling and dialer ??
Know some devs have put the sense camera on non sense Roms like miui x (lyapota camera one). I guess if you are using renovate you are on a jb hboot so that may be no good but worth looking around.

hey thanks for the info. I'll definately look at miui.... n btw i am on ordroid now switched almost 4 roms yesterday :
renovate
cm10
4.2 jb ( really liked the rom but i missed my sense cam and smart dial)
ordroid
If you like the sense smart dial then there are similar apps that are good when not on sense. Dialer one is the first that comes up on play search and it has some similar features.
Enjoy

I am pretty much a new android user too and just installed a custom rom this week.. I have tried both renovate and ordroid.. very smilar.. ordroid doesnt really have any visual changes... but is very stable.. so is renovate... what do u like the best abt blade Rom?
I was up till late last night flashing about 4 different Roms lol. Blade is fast as and I'm happr for the minute. I'm a fan of miui after running it on previous devices. ideally id like sense based rom with cm/solo custimisation. Like team viper ics There is a hell of a lot of Roms so ill keep looking.

it´s really a question that you can´t solve by yourself testing several roms?
i tested a lot of roms and the majority are stables and fast (always custom rom of course )) my current rom its wrote in my syg (it don´t means that the rest are worse....)simply ITS MY CURRENT ROM
I think that it hasn´t better answer.... the only thing that i can say is try several roms since @Seraphic pure android 2.3.3 to AOSP roms, themed roms.... and decide.
Yeah i went and used a few other rom's but to be fair i got the best out of Android Revolution, though i've also had RCMix rom's they are always good fun to use
I would recommend LeeDroid. It's stable, fast, and very well supported and updated by the developer. Highly customizable too
I'm using Revolution and love it. But it's really about testing out each ROM and seeing which one suits your needs. You'll be sure to find more and more ROMs you love. Then just pick the one you found the most usable and more to your style.
Obviously always make sure to check over new ROM updates to see if maybe another ROM offers something a bit more.

under my opinion, this is the best answer..
Try and play around flashing. Its also fun anyway. xD
Thank you guys. The only reason im reluctant on keep flashing roms is due to fear of bricking. I mean I spent £340 for the phone and I dont want it dead lol

A bit hard to answer that. There's many to choose from.
I like ARHD ROMs for the stock look.
LeeDrOiD ROMs for different tweaks
These are just 2 of many good ROMs.

go through the threads and see which one you like the most and try it out..the best thing to do is try and test it that way you can make your own mind up
or just look at my sig and that will tell you all
Thanks all , i flash ARHD on my HOX

Yep, ARHD is awesome!
However, the fastest ROM with the best Battery life still is CM9...

I hope to see a official CM9 thread on XDA soon..
I like leedroid - good battery and Aroma installer for some options (but I waiting for stable CM9, because AOSP-style is magnificent)

the CM9 port I mentioned actually is really stable, it just has some bugs, mostly with the camera :/ .. problem with imagesense chip. However, this is the main reason why I'm going to switch back to ARHD, waiting for a stable CM9, like you said

Yup. Agree with fekle. CM9 is the best rom I'd flashed so far. But I revert back to leedroid Because the sense camera is much better. Try Franco's kernel by the way. Give me excellent battery life compared to stock or other kernels
Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk
Ive flashed them all, and I still cant choose my ROM
Somehow they are all the same. None of them stands out. Except the themed ones of course. But I miss the wow factor. Something new. It seems like all the devs (or tweakers?) copy each others work, so we ended up having 4 of the same ROM. Only with different names.
Sorry if I offended anyone, but that is just how I see it. I am no dev.

Anyone suggest a Rom for me
? Was using a good Rom since April but due to lack of support by developer I need to move on..
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
hard to say boyo im using the venom one have to say it's the longest lasting rom so far on my device.
Take venom Rom
Best Rom four personalisation Verb fast stabile and good battery Live
To be honest it depends what your looking for.
Stability - ARHD/LEEDROID
Cutomization - slimcs/exodized/venom
Those are just some of the more popular roms. I personally run exodized and I've flashed nearly every other one, always end up back on exodized for its aosp feel and performance and great battery life.

hi
as allready writen that depends what are u looking for.
i've been using for some time in DHD and one X the Android Revolution HD
good rom and stable
also tested LEEDROID but prefered to go back to arhd
As sugested here i think i'm gona try the venom Rom looks niece
and see how it works.
I have been using different ROMS. For most customizations, go for venom.
For sheer stability and stock look. ARHD is THE best.
And AOSP ROMS keep it simple. I personally love paranoid android. It's a hybrid rom
Worth checking out. Using it as my daily driver
Whichever rom works the best for you is the best one. Best thing to do is try them give them a couple of days to settle in and see which you prefer.

ViperX is the most cutomizable SENSE ROM with its OTA support. Take a look at Original Android Development and Android Development threads. The best ROM for me is.the one where developers actively support their users.

TBalden's CM9 and Floatshow's ParanoidAndroid (officially best battery life)
Sent from my HTC One X
I'd say Trips CM9 Rom with jelly bean stuff, very very smooth, and nice battery time. Still a little buggy, so you need to be able to handle that...
IMHO for me it was and still is that pokemon Rom with faux kernel. The best one i used do far. Right behind is leedriod and ARHD. Havent tried Venom because one of my friends bricked his phone trying to install it and the install procedure is atleast complicated and undefined. Some say you should install it this way others say different. They dont even say does the auto-rom flasher work on a stock-rooted phone.
I would suggest the Venom rom, good battery and alot of custom stuff
Would you like to stick close to stock I suggest ARHD
many AOSP roms
most AOSP ROMs are cool..
i use CM9 port and my friend uses IcedCooled AOKP.. they work pretty well
Go with venom, u won't regret it. It is very stable and battery life is awesome.

Give Domination CyanogenMod 9 a whirl. Its a sensless rom but has an almost entirely ICS feel to it. Easy to use with great features
been using Leedroid for a while nice ROM clean and stable with some nice tweaks
Give a try to Domination + faux3b11 kernel and undervolt it in 100mv. Nice rom, many costomization options, stable and fast.
Suggest me a good rom. My conditions are
1. good battery life
2. OAT updates needed for new rom versions .
3. Preferring ROM without sense
4. Preferable Jelly bean
5. Good sound quality ( beats )
6. Should be stable
7. Should remove hearing of mobile
8. Preferring htc camera app
9. good performance.
so please help me to find a rom according to my criteria.
May god bless you
#4 makes #1 impossible at this point.
Besides, you should go through all of the different ROM threads to learn everyone's experiences.
#8 and #2 conflict with #3

Use The CM Nightly. See tbaldens thread under Original Android Development
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
Suggest looking at ARHD, is currently ICS, but already looks to be
working with early JB code and will most likely one of the first ROMs
to support JB. Can always replace the bits of sense you don't like
Viper X
You can't wait all your 'criteria', in one ROM at the moment haha...
So one or two of your 'criteria', may have to be sacrificed.
Gonna have to suggest the viperx Rom, may not be jb but once you have used it you will be willing to wait for the devs to switch to jb base. In the aroma installer you can desense it as much as you like, then flash a aosp mod for a more than adequate aosp feel and look
sent from my One X using xda venom premium
ViperX for OTA updates, but if you're looking for JB, I suggest you go for CM10 Nightlies.
Try them all mate, only you can decide what's best for you. We can all say try this that or the other but it's what comes down to personal taste that matters. Any of the current Sense based roms are excellent. Viper X has some fantastic tweaks that make it special. ARHD is highly popular, got a great dev behind it.
Then you have CM9/CM10/AOKP roms, they are fine for daily use bug minor bugs here and there.
Official Jelly Bean is due soon, so in the mean time start flashing and testing! Also kernels will help with battery life and such as well.
Good luck. :good:
Hello,
i have been using htc one v now but i am bored with it and plus it has become extremely slow, though i deleted lots of data and extra apps. still it is very laggy and takes a century to start any app. i was lately thinking to change to a custom rom, but ever since that thought occurred to me, i've been in the dilemma if choosing the right one. i searched the forums but couldnt satisfy myself. i want a rom that will be based on jelly bean and at the same time running full htc sense. how will i make it possible? may be someone over here could help me with that. i have least knowledge of roms and related stuff.
regards,
Abbas
Jelly bean in combination with sense isnt (yet) possible on the one v.

Like the above post, full sense is not yet available on current ROMs. And, I'm not sure that it will be considering most people install custom roms to get away from sense (like me).
If you want a custom rom still, I recommend the AOKP rom, with the CDMA version that I'm using, it's really stable and pretty fast and everything seems to work, even bluetooth. Still some graphics glitches, but those will get worked out.
I would recommend maxwen & Lloir's CM 10 ROM, it is smooth and dinamic. Before that Íve got the same issues as you.
