Hi there,
I know, some of you will tell "search", but I am reading, reading, reading... and I can't find rom which according to comments:
- is stable and has no bugs (battery drain, videocam etc.)
- is possibly fastest and smoothest
- is light (no unneeded features)
- is able to install any app on SD card
- JB would be pleasent, but ICS and GB are also acceptable, with Sense or not, doesnt matter.
Can you recommend something? I just want to install it and forget that I have rooted phone.
Thankyou in advance and greetings.

Check out the rom I'm using. It's very fast and stable.
Cronmode 2.xx (current 2.1) for Desire, ICS (int2ext, swap, light trebuchet launcher, few apps, working camcorder, themes, 3g, wifi tether, usb tether etc.), my daily rom since november 2012. You can also give a try to marius.a ICS rom, is still in progress but dev is improving it at the moment, u can even ask him
Thanks a lot, I will try it. Is there also some alternative with Sense (any version)?
There is an ICS with Sense 4.1 - CoolDroid Revolution v 9.0 but I cannot recommend is for daily using. In my opinion is very unstable, and most of functions are partialy either not working When you want a sense 3.5 or lower you gonna have to use GB roms like that one from RSK team.
Cool Droid V3. Fastest Sense ROM i ever tried.

Hi I'm coming from this roms:
1) stock latest: incredibly slow but stable;
2) leedroid froyo latest: a bit fast than stock but not so stable;
3) CM7.0.2.1 latest build 57: fast, I like it but I have two bugs: popup on virtual keyboard sometimes don't appear and I need to reboot to partially solve; the second bug is that in call some times I speak but other don't hear me ! Not at start of conversation, but during !
4) devnull 1.0.2: fastest absoutely ! but I need data/app2ext and italian language and more customization;
5) oxygen I have tried only 2.0.0: I'm not sure of this, it seams fast as devnull and more stable of CM7, but is less customizable than this;
And so: please I need an help to choose a rom that is stable like stock (1) without loosing basic function of phone, like bugs in CM7, and fastest as devnull.
If I need to install froyo 2.2.1 for stability I can install it, I neeed a rom that have data/app2ext and stable as stock.
So.........tell me ?
Can always try miui I've been using for months and best imho

I have RCMix S v09 installed and going to get V1.0 when A2SD is released of V1.0. It's fast and has lots of the new stuff, also from HTC Sense 3.0
fast,smooth and stable rom
redux rom ftw, if u need more memory flash dalvik cache 2 sd in the other downloads section.
RCMix S i the best
tnx all
InsertCoin forever ;-). Very fast and realy stable with a lot of stuff from sense 3.0.
Sent from my insertCoin Desire using XDA Premium App
personal taste
i'm giving RCMixS a swing as I would like to check out what's new in the latest Sense UI but I must say that MIUI (use XJ data2sd-xpart version) is the best ever. It's packed with features you can't imagine and it's beautiful in appearance department plus customizable. a large community that is ever growing too, makes this rom something to watch in the future.
one proviso, i'm finding that trying to run data2sd on a class2 sdcard is a nightmare after a few hours. the system becomes slow slow slower than bloatstock so just makes sure you have a class4 or higher sdcard and all will be as bright as miui apples
MIUI shiny apples >>> [ROM][MIUI] 1.4.29 +OTA GB2.3/2.2 [Multi Lang] XJ-D2EXT X-Part, A2SD/+, D2W + Add-ons
I am using InsertCoin 2.0.1 Data2Ext and it is stable, fast, smooth, and relatively bug-free (not important: over 2200 points in Quadrant).
I have tried DeFrost, RCmixHD, LeeDroid, etc....InsertCoin is so far the best I have tried. I haven't flashed any other ROM ever since.
MIUIs are a big NO for me...they are iPhone-ish..
Now I am waiting the maturity of the Android 2.3 new-Sense ROMs ...after that...it is flashing time again!...
Well, you said the most stable... Then RCMIX S, InertcoinS and all the GB/Sense ROMs are stable, but not as stable as the Froyo (HD ROM Ports) ones.
Try Gingervillain (if you don't need sense). It's fast, stable and customizible(I didn't have any problems with it since 0.7).
dj droid good rom
Oxygen 2.0.3 (which i got, now is 2.1.1.) but as you mentioned...depends what do you want to customize and how much =) (but its stable, fast, with great batt life and without sense and unuseful apps) choose wisely
Hello ppl, i recently got a desire for uhh, 100 bucks
and now i see that this device has lot of ROMs.
(i'm now doing the roots and installing the recoverys)
I was looking for something simple, because this is for my brother and he is not such a geek, i just want a rom that does not have freezes or reboots, that works smooth
Does the ICS ROMs already stable or i should go for GB?
thanks ppl!
CM7 no questions asked.
Make sure to S-OFF and flash cm7 hboot to get the most space for apps
used CM7 a long time, but the ROM i used the longest is InsertCoin v1.1.4 on Stock HBOOT.
It's fast and stable, just had one issue in over 6 months which could be resolved by flashing a kernel without two way call recording.
Cyanogenmod, or Oxygen which is more barebones. Or stock Sense ROMs should be stable also. Personally I dont care for sense that much.
ICS is not stable, there are still some issues that need to be ironed out.
Stick to GB, I would recommend any of Roalex's roms, they're fantastic, even his ICS rom, which from my experience is the Best ICS rom on the desire at the moment.
Thank you everybody, now i gonna try your suggestions!
I really also liked Roalex's updated Oxygen, but it has one problem, if you move an app to sd, you can't move it back to the phone. This is using the standard apps to sd function of android. Roalexe's Cyanogen based GB rom has this issue also. I also had to restore apn's from a backup to get 3g working on the CM version. So they might not be as rock solid as original cm or oxygen.
I'm used MildWild V-4.0 Based on Oxygen 2.3.2 for about 2 to 3 months, I didnt faced single issue. This was my best ROM I have used..
Hi, I would tend to say Mildwild based on oxygen too. It is very stable. Mildwild CM is also nice but last version has bugs.
First, I would say, that it's ur choice.
Everybody says Oxygen is quiet good, but in my opinion, it's very ugly.
So CM will be nice, too. But u have to choose by ur self which rom is better 4 u.
The Gingerbread (Android 2.3.7) version of MIUI_Au (v. 2.1.13, which you will have to google as newcomers are stupidly barred from posting outside links) is also very stable, fast, and quite aesthetically pleasing, so you might want to give it a go.
Dont want to seem like a broken record but this is my post on another thread.
I know it's still in beta but Im using ICS .10.1 by Sandvold, very stable, no issues with the mass of apps I have installed and battery is great, better than stock I find. The ROM is fast and responsive again better than stock. Tried a few GB roms and sense roms but this is the best so far.
For various reasons I have gone back to these ICS roms, battery life, BSOD's and FC's. I've tried Runny roms and MUIU though still have serious issues on my phone. Running the current rom I could pretty much not update or change it and would be happy with it. Very stable, smooth and no BSOD's since latest update. Worth considering IMO.
Insetcoin is great, I'm on that ROM very long and its smooth and stable.
People claiming ICS ROM's at the moment are the most stable are seriously brain damaged..
3 biggest issues with all of them = broken video recording, no usb tethering, sluggish (unless you use only few apps and dont need a dalvik 2 ext scripts)
Also the "Full HWA" is still a hack.
I'm not saying they are bad, but they cannot be considered as "most stable" by any means.
The most stable ROM's by now, are the AOSP ones based on Gingerbread. (CM7, Oxygen etc.)
Ok maybe they are not "eye candy" out of the box, but if you spend some time to theme it then you'll be surprised, and you actually dont need Sense or ICS ROM's to achieve it.
Some examples. http://mycolorscreen.com/popular/
Hi,
I've been using mildwild V4.0 oxygen since it is out and I'm very pleased with it.
It is stable and fast. Sometimes I miss some sense functions like rolling numbers when setting the alarm clock. But when i use a sense rom, i realize how fast mildwild really is
The best is to try some Roms. Everybody has his own preferences.
I suggest mildwild v4.0 oxygen too
Runnymede AIO V6.0.4.3 Special Edition or MildWild CM 4.8
If you want ICS, BCM 3.7U0 but of course it's not the most stable ROM but I'm telling you this ROM is great although it says your sd-ext must be less than 1.5Gb but I'm using it with 2Gb sd-ext 4 on a class 4, 16 Gb sd card with no problem at all. Trust me on these if not the most stable only because of the usb tethering and 15fps video recording, this ROM is the most performance sucker I ever had my benchmark on quadrant advance is 1708 with this ROM and I didn't even overclock my cpu but on a stable gb ROM my benchmark was 998 with the same app.let me point out that I have 132 apps installed on the ICS but I only had 87 apps on the gb ROM.
And with mods I have made it too look like this:
I might be a new XDA-Developers user but it doesn't mean that I'm new to using its stuff, it only means that I have been dumb enough to just use and never comment!!
Hope I could Help

Hello everybody,
I have HTC DHD and I was very sad whne HTC decided not to release ICS for it.
I am running 2.3.3 cooked by user Seraphic which means stock ROM with these modification applied
This rom has the following applied to it:
* Rooted
* Zipaligned
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Basically I want stock ROM but rooted.
Overall I am very happy with stock but there is 1 thing that I miss from ICS release and that is Gtalk for multiple account at the same time, which is not available in Gingerbread.
I don't want experimental unstable builds that have a lot of features not working
Can you suggest me a ICS ROM that has almost everything working that worked in stock ROMs please?
Ideally something looking stock with the stability and features of stock ICS and root access.
Thank you for your suggestions in advance

+1 for that if you like sense
For Sense 3.6, I'd recommend Blackout and for Sense 4, try Sabsa Prime. Virtuous Infinity is great as well but I find it laggy for me although I haven't tried it yet with the new kernel. I've tried most of the ICS roms currently available and find Ice Cold Sandwich works the best for me. Its really a matter of personal preference.
thanks for your answers
do most features work in those suggested roms? (e.g. Camera and Camcorder, ... ?)
Each ROM has their own set of unique bugs. For example, Blackout has a known Hotspot problem which may or may not have been fixed. I don't have a data plan and just use WIFI as its readily available where I am located so the Hotspot is not an issue for me. Sabsa Prime 6.5 should have the Camera/Camcorder fixed from previous versions. If not search the thread for an earlier version camera fix. Just don't ask for it as it is a touchy subject.
If you plan to try Virtuous Infinity, install V1.33.0 Alpha 3 first and then install the OTA updater to get to V1.35.0 Beta 1. I found most features worked better (i.e adding certain widgets to the home screen) for me using this method rather than installing V1.35.0 Beta 1 by itself.
Ics: I would go with ice cold sandwich (lord clokan)
Jelly bean: jellytime r 15 (randomblade).
Ice cold sandwich its an AOKP - Rom, which means that it has allot more options.
Sent from my Desire HD
i have triend many sense and other roms. all sense roms are slower as compared to aokp ones.
ice cold sandwich 8.7 is best .
BUT camera works better in sense roms.
blackout ics is the one i will prefer if i want perfect camera result nd ice cold sandwich if i am not to keen about the result of the camera
Hi, I'm back and I got my Desire Z back. Running Andromadus build 12, and I have some questions.
What is the best recovery out there? (I have goomanager installed and I would like to have TWRP, but I'm scared it isn't compatible)
Fastest ROM? I noticed that latest 4.2 builds isn't so fast, even with oc to 1.4 GHz, which worked fine with Virtuous Unity.
A lot have changed, you got camera working on Sense 4.0 and a lot of full Sense 4.0/4.1 ROMs.
I can be a ROM alpha/beta tester (I'm not afraid of bricks).
(Yes, this is a useless thread )

1. I use 4ext..love it
2. I would say gingerbread is best for stability and speed.
Sense 4 best was gen.y..but its only my opinion..sabsa prime not that bad too..
No offence,but I really really appreciate the developers work

I use CM7, I used JB in a while, and it lagged more than Sense
I tried all the Senses and found (at least for me) Gen's Sense 4.0A was the best, and while it was useable for a DD, I still found lag in bringing up both phone and text messages, so back to GB I went.
I'm thinking about changeing ROM in my Desire, Right now I'm using MildWild 5 (from here) but it's missing few small things I need.
Which of GB ROMs do you recommend? Why GB? Because I would like to have Camera fully working (only one 4.0 ROM has it running, but that ROM is only in English and Chinese).
Looking for something stable, this is the most important for me, someting that doesn't have problems with battery and of course has camera fully working. Also it need to have more then just english and chinese language
Would be nice if it was something based on Sense ROM's with few adjustments. Have tried already LeeDroid and I'm thinking about using it once again, but wanted to know if there is something else worth to try.
Thank you

there is cool ex sense ics themed rom or you could try mildwild for a stock ,dont go for any sense rom base on 3.5 or higher found they lag like hell
any rom based on sense 3.0 and below works well .

If u want stable , u should go to stock rom
Mildwild is still my favourite since its fast and stable.
I tried ChromiumRom for its look but found it to be a little laggy for my daily usage http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2205516
MIUI-XJ was my first rom and really liked for its ability to switch up themes easily in 2.3.7 and its "iPhone-esque" feel but soon realised it was a bit heavy on resources and thus battery suffered.
Desire is getting old now so i would say go for the latest 'stable and fast' blend of ROM.
Presumably you are needing video camera to work fully, not just the still camera?
CarbonRom KitKat 4.4.3 and AOSB KitKat 4.4.4 - these are my favorites.
4.4.4 Beanstalk RC6
It's faster than GB!
Do you want stability and absolutely everything working? Then go for any (aosp preferably) gingerbread rom.
Do you want bleeding edge of development? Then go for the latest evervolv nightly based on 4.4.4 android. But you should forget video recording and expect some rough edges and no guarantees on stability.
It is a matter of choice after all.
