[Q] ROM Recommendation

Hi everyone,
Last week my dad bought my brother a Samsung Galaxy S phone, and I installed a custom ROM on it with one of the latest android versions.
The ROM looks really impressive and the Hebrew support is way better than it is on my own phone.
I have the 'classic' HTC Desire (not HD, Z or whatnot), with one of the early ROMs released (from Modoco if I remember right - I actually got the phone before a root for it was pubicly available).
I'm looking for a recommendation for a custom ROM to install. I really want proper Hebrew/RTL support in it, hopefully the gingerbread Hebrew keyboard which seems awesome, and since I've grown accustomed to the HTC Sense UI, I'd love to keep that as well.
What would you guys suggest?

There aren't many custom roms with Gingerbread in combination with HTC Sense if I am right. I know there is a custom gingerbread rom leaked with HTC sense a few days ago so that could be very good for us.
I really like Oxygen because it's really clean without software I don't need.

True, so far I havent find any real HTC Gingerbread rom, and those I did, were just filled with dodgy 'senselike' widgets, which is not the same... so I am still patiently waiting for 2.3 with sense

You could always have a look at the ported Z/HD roms for Desire, some of them are very nice. I am currently using RCMixHD 3.4 and I enjoy it a lot. It is basically an incremental update to sense with a few added optimizations.

Thanks for the replies.
AFAIK, the gingerbread keyboard can be ported to android 2.2.
The ROM I installed on my brother's phone was android 2.2.1 but had the gingerbread keyboard.
In regard to the HD ROMs, those can be installed on the regular Desire device?

The HD roms are quite feature rich as compared to Desire roms

best Android 2.3 + Sense Rom

Hello guys,
I can't decide which Android 2.3 + Sense Rom I should flash on my DHD.
there are the following Roms to choose:
- LeeDroid HD 2.3.4 beta 3
- CoreDroid V4
- Android Revolution HD 4.0 beta 1
- VillainRom 2.0.1
- RCMix HD 4.2
Which Rom did you choose and why did you choose it ???
Thanks very much

VillainROM because Nathan, the maker of it, made also many very excellent ROMs for the HTC Hero and so I trust him that he'll also make good ROMs for Desire HD.

i had leedroid 2.2 and it worked fine. then i wiped my phone and installed leedroid 2.3, but only part of sense showed up on my phone! really weird. then i flased RCmix 2.3 and it works brilliant!

you mean RCMix HD 4.2, right ??

If you MUST use Sense (I dont know why...) The Beta ARHD 4.0 is your best bet. Its a good experience so far.
That said, I am a CM7 User, and I hate Sense, so take my opinion with a grain of salt.

I had the same question some time ago and it's often a thing of personal decision. So you probably will have to try for yourself. All the ROMs have good performance.
I'm using Revo HD because it looks like stock but with nice tweaks.

Only reason that I use sense is because I like some of the Sense apps(Dialer and messaging mainly)

I'd Choose either of Revolution or Leedroid , both are gr8 roms, the others listed Tbh i havent flashed those on my DHD so can't really give my opinion on those tilli try em out. i've used leedroid since v.1.5 and its been my personal fave one to use daily.

Actually I am concerned about the daily usability of the different builds and if it's worth to jump to gingerbread seen the source is a leaked build probably in very early stage. I would like to try it but I feel so confortable with AR3 ... Please someone tell me I would not regret it

You could always back up your rom before flashing ?

I would obviously do it, but I am so lazy that was wondering if this rom is worth it ... I promise I'll do my homeworks and let you know here if it is

Android Revolution HD 4.0 beta 1 without a doubt.
Beta 2 out tomorrow so maybe you should wait for that one to flash.

Any idea what time beta 2 is being released?? Im looking forward to going to Gingerbread but am completely reliant on my phone for work and dont have a spare so want it to be as stable and have everything working before i take the plunge!! Also does anyone know if the GB roms can be overclocked yet and which radio should be used??
Thanks in advance!!

Nevermind, just checked and Beta 2 is OUT NOW!!!!

I am using leedroid 2.3.4 beta 4 r2. The reason i'm running this is that i have used his leedroid vesion on my phone since i bought it, and that he is very quick with updates and fixes. Also lee's rom is always lightning fast!

MIUI isnt that fast these days..

Try SGBS rom (v1.7) have sense and is very fast and stable.

Better wait for the official 2.3. I am using Cyanogenmod 7.0.3 Stable, but there is issue with call delay and mobile data connection problem. Now I am waiting for 2.3 official

I am running Insertcoin from around last 2 months and frankly speaking i never had any issues with the ROM. U can give it a try. U can get the rom from my signature.
Note: I never use HD recording or Playback on mobile, so i have never tested these functionality.

Yes, InsertCoin stable 1.0.8 seems to be bug free.
I used it also since about 2 months.

RCMix S v. 2.0.1 snm.

Try http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1113070&highlight=Recent+Apps easy to install.

For me AcesMod007 v24
Tried all roms but this one stands to be most stable and fast...
Leedroid is good too but battery hog.
Insertcoin is not bad but slow compared to acemod007.

From my personal experience I can highly recommend oxygen. It's a very clean and stable rom and I get a great battery life. Before using oxygen I tried leedroid, rcmix s, miui and redux. They are all nice and fast, but I really like the cleanness of oxygen and redux. I would have stayed with redux, but the developer did not have any time for further development for nearly two months, so I changed to oxygen. But I cannot see a big difference between redux and oxygen.

Ive tried loads, but an issue that kept recurring was depletion of internal memory. Therefore for the desire in my opinion the best roms are ones that allow data2ext or data2we which tricks your phone into thinking it has the internal memory limit you choose. I like gingerburst, a sense Rom since the whole thing is easy to set up and is stable. Just Google it and follow the instructions on the site
Cyanogen 7.0.3 works with the data2we. zip. If you don't like HTC sense, and is my close second Fave Rom

[Q] Porting Oxygen Rom to Galaxy S II T989 - Possible?

Is there any way or chance that our super-phone's can gain the Oxygen Rom?
I know a rom was released for the S II International, but I really wish one was created for our S IIs (T-Mobile/AT&T).
Back in my HD2 Android days, I found out that someone was able to port Oxygen to the HD2 from a HTC Desire release.
Can it be done?

Darkstone1337 was using Adam G's Oxygen for a base on some of his projects for the HD2. The Oxygen series is based of AOSP, so I would say its possible but we still need additional drivers for it to work. The reason the Desire was so easy to port to the HD2 is they have almost identical hardware, hence drivers.
Cyanogen is based of AOSP as well and hasn't come out of alpha stage because of needed drivers.

If you wanna use Kitkat. Try Unofficial Cyanogenmod 11, SchutzhundAOKP, Nexus 5 Experience ROM, codefireX or TakTik. They are based on KitKat 4.4.2
If you love to watch videos much, Try JellyTime R11 or Unofficial Cyanogenmod 10.1 SR3 both are its latest and JellyBean 4.2.2
If you want Sense, Try KingCobra, Acetify they are JellyBean 4.1+
visit development forum then choose ROM with your favor.
I think JellyBean 4.2.2 is most stable then Kitkat then Sense. On Sense, camera has broken. On KitKat some video and some video apps has broken follow both me and paulb_nl's posts here.

Thread Moved to Q&A and Closed
As this thread is asking for the most stable ROM, that falls into the category of a best ROM thread (which is against our rules).
As I always say when closing threads such as this, the best way to find the most stable ROM is to test them out yourself. This way, you won't need to create a thread (which then gets closed) and you'll have the satisfaction of finding out the information all by yourself.
You may also find a ROM which is ideal for you which hasn't been mentioned by someone else. As you can now see, testing them out for yourself is truly a win win situation.
