I've returned to htc desire flashing after near one year. I see now there are quite good non-sense roms, but every one has the same issue for me: when I try to record video the phone freezes and/or randomly reboots.
I read it could be due to not having flashed the last radio. I did it, but the phone still freezes and reboots.
Any suggestion?

I tried with several roms, such as mildwild jelly-gingerbread, miui xj, CM10.1 VJ Touchwiz... No way with any of them. I even re-flashed latest radio, full wipes, etc.

CM.10.1 video recording is a no go but mildwild roms should be just fine. did u read any of the post in the mildwild threads n see if anyone else has this problem? coz when i used mildwild CM and Redux, i could record no problem. mite be hardware, i dunno. try flash a sense rom like cool droid v3 or any of the older sense roms and see if its still the same.

That's the point: it doesn't happen with cooldroid, nor any sense rom; but it happens with any rom without sense. Maybe an extrange hardward issue.

I do not either know it. But after some google search I fixed permissions by cwm and I managed to record up to 30 seconds. More time always causes freeeze and reboot. I tried with gb mildwild, miui and this ics rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2095658

I'm using a patched camera app from HTC OneX and it's working fine. Well not exactly upto the standard, but no more tearing animation on Nikez's ROM... Besides, the JB camera is far better than GB ones.

I have been going back and forth with roms and wondering some things myself.
I like the speed and system memory available with the A2SD of the AOSP roms (oxygen) but need my video camera so the gingerbread thing is out till they sort that out and Im finding I like the sense roms.
Anyone have any experience with the stock roms? Are there any sense stock roms with very little of the garbage apps that come with most sense roms but still have A2SD? I guess Im looking for the best of both worlds here.....
There are froyo AOSP roms so no sense and a working video recorder, you can also strip Sense roms from the stuff you don't want, just make sure it's not a critical part.
But if you want a Sense rom I suggest you use Leedroid with A2SD and don't worry about space or removing sense apps.
Leedroid is my 1st rom, then i tried defrost, open desire, gingervillain, Oxygen, they all give me bugs, as for other sense rom, i've tried AuraTSense & Modaco, not tat perfect for me, as for Sense HD rom, don't try it, they're not mend for Desire... lastly i go back to Leedroid, now it's 23d already, and it's smooth, bug free... i just hope tat i know how to take out those stuff that i don't need inside... I really wanted to have a smooth non sense rom, but non of them is better than leedroid...

I use Baadnewz' HD rom it's pretty fast and stable (as fast and stable as leedroid's in fact) and you get the sense 2.0 goodness too. I was on Leedroid for a long time but wouldn't go back to old sense anymore.
thx for the info, i think i'm gonna give it a try...
hmmmm
I'm running Leedroid right now and start up is quite laggy and my phone is not very responsive. I just s-offed my phone so I'll see what I can do with it now.
I tried Baadnewz but can't remember why I didnt like it. lol
The HD roms seem to give me bugs.
I have been debating making my own rom, a sort of Frankenstein rom, with bits and pieces of all the things I like from other roms. The main problem I'm having is finding a tutorial on making roms. I have searched but found nothing...

I get lags if I don't do a full wipe or use titanium backup to restore old system settings with any rom. Once you are on a certain rom you can usually just upgrade without a full wipe.
Tried Baadnewz' HD rom, not that responsive... sometimes need press 2-3 times to screen on... going back to leedroid... ><

To take out the unnecessary stuff search LeeDroid's minisite - there is a great tutorial, how to remove stuff you don't need.
Also you can delete the not needed .apks from the .zip file on your PC and after that you can flash it.
Also tried a few ROMs (including gingervillain, Oxygen), but using LD, cause it is the best for me.

I deleted 2 apps (cifsManager & DefaultclearHome) and it was working without any problems so far.
I don't know about other .apks, but in that case i recommend the tutorial shown here:
http://leedroid.protogenlabs.com/wiki/guidelines-for-safe-removal-of-included-apps-apks
However, there is written, than you can just simply delete from the .zip file.
Do we have a poll /or can we have one for best ROM available for Desire ? .
Just wanted to know whats the most used ROM on the forum .
-So ive tried lots of roms, i can't decide whats best tbh ive tried the following-

MIUI [Latest]
All Sense Roms, Including HD ports
Gingerbread [all, and they are not stable, so no Gingerbread plz]
Oxygen 1.0.4
UltimateDoid
Ok, if u know of any other ROM Thats stable, Fast and has no bugs or any kid plz let me know. so far DeFroST 6.1 is Fav with Oxygen 1.0.4 on 2nd and MIUI 3rd

I tried Oxygen 2.0 RC6 (w/ Gingerbread) and it's lovely, only it absolutely kills my battery, wifi, gps etc all off, I'm lucky to get 3 hours of screen-on before it's dead.

if thats ment as a joke, its not a good one. its fully readable, even my little sis could read this.

Anyway i chanegd to CM 7! i did not try that ROM, so i am trying it now. And so far its the best Gingerbread ROM avalible.
Using oxygen atm. LOVING it lol. A few things I'm sure will be fixed next update but its so much better than stock. Any other roms recommended to try? I got the custom rom f
ever! =]

I guess it's just as stabe as Oxygen.
And as far as I have read there will be no more updates for Oxygen before the OTA is out.
I have to say I haven't tried Oxygen, but I think they use the same source ?
Anyway rooting my Desire and putting on a custom rom is the best decision I have done for my phone. I have topped it off by putting on the CM7 Hboot, giving me lots of space for apps on the phone.

AFAIK Oxygen is maintened by AdamG.
Adam worked on OpenDesire earlier.

Yes maintained by AdamG, but the source is still the AOSP from Google.
And CM 7 uses that also.
They each have their own additions to the code, but I guess the core is the same.
I've also flashed Oxygen ROM first and than after sometime later MIUI-Au.
In terms of customization (UI, themes, options,etc.) and details, I can say that MIUI wins..
I'm glad I rooted my Desire since I don't have internal memory space issues anymore, only thing that maybe bothers me since I rooted my phone is that battery drains up quicker than with Sense.. maybe I'm wrong..
Redux RC6 - stable and fast. Im running it with the coutts .38 kernel and it's smooth....
There's always a bug somewhere for me and it is very annoying (no matter what ROM I use). So, I'm back to a stock Froyo (even though it is not my favourite!)

I did the same. i mean why to use a custom rom if you can't use your phone at 100% ( for example use camera or radio). ok you get more space, so what?
i have to confess i liked seeing my desire on gingerbread and if i find a close to custom full working rom i ll flash it again.
Hi what are the main differences between androdomus ICS and virtous quattro ICS?
Which of these is better?
Yes there are differences.
Difficult to say wich one is the best, because there are not enought advanced to see.
Virtuous team add always a lot of tweaks and personalization, but there are still some graphical bugs witch are annoying...
At this day, I would advise you to go to A9 until...
Says someone on Quattro and witch LOOOOVES it . Where is the logic?
Quattro has a lot less passive update schedule as opposed to Andromadus. If you don't want to flash new versions all the time I'd suggest you stay away from Quattro.
In fact, you should stay away from ICS altogether till there's a final version and all the quirks have been figured out.
Can we hope for official version of ICS?
I have no problem to flash any update.
Which rom is more stable?
As far as I know, we have not yet been officially denied an upgrade to ICS, but it is probably not going to happen.
I'd say that both versions are equally stable (though I haven't tried andromadus v9 yet). However quattro is currently plagued with very annoying graphical glitches as far as the launcher is concerned. It doesn't seem to impact performance and can be fixed easily, but still.
As far as I know, we have not yet been officially denied an upgrade to ICS, but it is probably not going to happen.

Nevermid what a pity.
Maybe in the next quattro's version this issue with graphical glitches will be repaired...!Im waiting for it
You can install the RC now.
Upgrading just take 10 minutes and no wipe data needed (just dalvik cache).

And I wouldn't use htcdev to unlock your phone, use the Wiki for Htc Vision as your starting point, In addition to you voiding your warranty,the official unlocking seems problematic and you still cant' flash another radio.
ebreo: you should try both for yourself and decide. but a warning. if camera is of great importance to you then you should stay away from ICS for now. The camera is not great and very unreliable. Dont trust is to take pics of your childs first steps. But that is what you get when you deal with betas. At least there is a camera. And no matter what you should keep a working GB rom on your sd card. just incase ICS for fubar on your phone you can atleast flash a GB rom and have a working phone.

WIKI for HTC Vision This is "the" guide to follow, may seem complicated at first but take your time and read over it a few times plenty help to be found in the forums,best of luck bud.
i would say i will go for Quattro, for its virtuos oc/uv, and other tweaks, i have tried rc1 and rc2 versions.

Hello everyone,
I would be interested to know which Wildfire AOSP ROM would you say is the fastest from your experience.
Different opinions are welcome.
Thanks
CM7~!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
yeah CM7. Although this opinion is narrow minded as i have only ever used this ROM - its fast enough and has all the features i want, i am reluctant to move away from it as i am comfortable with my set up.
CM7 is best for me
I use Oxygen, I have used CM7 but i just find oxygen faster.
It doesn't have the same options, but it fits my needs.

Most nandroid backups are cwm specific. Eg a cwm 3.2.00 might not restore a backup from a different cwm version.

Are you using the Oxygen TEST version from here or some other Oxygen derived ROM?
I'm using an Oxygen derived ROM on my Desire (the Wildfire is my girlfriend's) and I have to say it is noticeably faster than CM7.
To my CM7, but with all the patches around here
Well I'm going against the grain now as I've tested just about every Rom going and after many months of staying away from HTC sense I find rempuzzle lite version to be equally as fast and a heck of a lot more stable than cm7 or oxygen or any of its rip offs. Also with the knowledge I've gained from modding and customizing cm7 to my liking I can make it equally as beautiful.

You can use Staus Bar Settings which can overcome the issue and it is available free in the Market..
I tried every single rom and tested them at least 2 weeks before flashing something new.
First of all; Wildfire is a slow device. You got to live with it.
Second of all; All roms are slow because wildfire is slow. You need to find the most stable rom. Which is, either CM7 or Rempuzzle. Oxygen is pretty stable as well.

off topic but 37.41mbs? thats mental!
anyway, I hadnt changed my cmw between nandroids. only found out how to change it when i updated my radios last week.
recently i've been getting loads of FC's and jumping launchers and weird stuff happening on my CM7. I've been happy with it since december now but its starting to bug me. I need a more stable ROM thats going to run smoothly.
As Scratch said above, I'm sure with my knowledge of modding and buggering things up and then fixing them, i can find a more stable rom and get it how i like it.
After trying various rom's over the last couple of months, including aosp and sense based rom's, I've settled on oxygen rom as my favorite.
For me, both the asop and sense rom's would load quickly and work well. But i prefer the asop based rom's for their look /style.

Lol. I have a very comfortable internet speed.
I took scratches comments into account and decided to try rempuzzle too after being back on jokerdroid for a while.
And I am impressed too with this rom after removing and editing to my own preferences. But I have been experiencing some annoying cwm restore issues after backup.keep getting bootloops but I think It may have had something to do with previous custom mtds and/or old dta2sd script flash. Although jkd didn't present these issues. Anyway flashed fresh cwm 5.0.2.7 jrodd version and updated to dta2sd beta 3 and started from scratch (no pun) with rempuzzle again so gotta find time to mess with framework then report back.
Both roms I've mentioned are very good but I think I might end up reverting back to cm7 eventually. Lol I get bored very quick.
P.s off topic but is there any way to hide/show status bar with 1 click or swipe method etc etc for sense!!!
