Fastest, Stablest and Lightest ROM for HTC Desire HD - Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

HTC Desire HD's stock ROM is horrible, it is not stable at all and crashes every second and the battery consumption is terrible.
I'm looking for an excellent ROM. The most important factor for me is "stability".
What is the stablest ROM for Desire HD out there? I do NOT need extra features/options/customizations. Just a simple, super fast, stable and reliable ROM is enough for me. And the Android version does NOT matter either. It doesn't matter if it's 4.0.4 or 4.4.4. It has no difference for me. I only want it to function fast enough, excellently and be 100% stable.

ICS 4.0.4. Oldy but goody

[Q] What is the overall smoothest ROM right now?

After testing several ROM's I'd like to see your opinion about which one is runnig the smoothest - I still stick to robo's HD version right now. And yes I know there isn't THE smoothest rom, I'm just interested in some opinions.
I have to say in terms of hd I found rcmixhf the best but by far the best so far has to be leedroid nice mixture of features and reliability not to mention battery. Miui is the fastest and best non sense very stylish fast and reliable though I'm not a fan of the the way the apps are stored.

I have tested almost every major rom.
I have decided to stick with Cyanogen
Now switched to Miui .29 ....lolzzzz
I think it would be auraxTsense 7.9 for me followed closely by AlexV1.7. I never had much luck with ASOP rom on the desire.
Have to say leedroid 2.2e is as fast and smooth as you can get it, OD is still favourite thought.
I've allways had a softspot for Cyanogen roms, alltho I'm way to much in love with the Sense UI. After all Sense roms I've tried I've become very impressed with Pays roms. He's not updating like crazy and all updates are as steady and smooth as can be, imo.
Only backside with all Sense roms is that noone has implemented the BlueZ bluetooth stack. I want to be able to use my Wiimote, damn it!

[Q] What is the Fastest ROM for DHDP?

Hello guys,
I´ve just questions. Can anyone tell me, what is the fastest ROM for the DHD
and what is the fastest ROM with the best battery life.
Thank you <3
the best rom is cm7 but its very bland to look at. the nicest rom is rcmixhd gingersense. battery life is best on leedroid or cm7. overall id say grab rcmixhd. but if u wanna try out stock android, check cm7
Thank u, for the reply <3
CM7 is certainly my favourite. Clean, quick and just plain Google beauty.
I tried a few roms till now
1. Revolution HD 4.0 (performance issues)
2. Coredroid 4.5 (a bit tooo fancy for my taste)
3. CyanogenMod 7 (pretty bald compared with sense but good battery life)
4. RCMixHD 5.9.5 (Great Rom smooth, stock sense, rather good battery life)
As always a battery wipe helps out the battery life after flashing a few roms.
I´d pick RCMixHD best ratio of design/battery(but thats my taste everyone thinks different)
I only tried
Android Revolution 3.5 with sense
CM 7 stable
Now i am testing cm 7 stable with updated kernel:
[KERNEL][23 APR]LorDMod V4.3|SMARTASS|BFSv400|CFS|SLQB|UV|1.9VOL|VDD|SQ LITE3|.38
and BFQ 4.2 and PUV reuploaded. (see the thread in developement)
With PUV i have a huge battery improvement compared to AR 3.5. But it may not work on every Desire HD. Core is at 122/1078 Powersave.

For my taste CoreDroid HD GB 2.3.3 V5.4 all the way... fast,stable,good battery, no bugs at all......
I'm using MIUI 1.4.22 Rey's Custom Rom v12. Very fast with awesome batt life. Best of the 3 roms I've used (Revolution, CM7 and std HTC Sense 2.1).
Batt life with aid of Juice Defender is consistently around 24 hours with moderate use.
Highly recommended with ADW Launcher. Must be Rey's Custom Rom tho.. def worth checking out! I've never looked back.

I've been on Revolution HD, CM7 stable, and RCMiX HD.
Won't make any comments about Revolution..
CM7 stable is stock android experience; for me, battery life was better than RCMix. However, CM7 starts getting buggy for me after a week or two of use. Sense ROMs do not have this issue.
Speedwise, they're all about the same if you remove all the junk from Sense ROMs
If you check the Themes subforum there's a flashable zip for that!

GB, ICS or JB ROM?

I am probably going to root my friends DHD soon and wondering if I should stick with CM7.2 as I presume its pretty rock solid and reasonably fast or go with an ICS or JB rom that obviously has newer features but could be less stable. I know everyone's perfect roms aren't the same but are there any ICS/JB roms out there for the DHD that are stable, quick, having (almost) everything worling and preferably stock AOSP rather than sense?
I'm from the desire so don't know much about the DHD scene, any recommendations would be appreciated
Cheers
I should try Sabsa Prime V9 (can't judge V10 yet) because it's so smooth as you possibly won't see ever again in a Sense ROM.

aospX. It's in the Inspire 4G forums, but I4G ROMs are compatible with DHDs. Almost pure AOSP.
EDIT: Another advantage is that aospX is still actively supported by the developer existz; the other AOSP-like ROM (though AOKP) is IceColdSandwich in the DHD forums, but the developer LordclockaN has officially moved on (thought he still stops by every now and then). aospX updates less often, but each one is rock solid.
I would personally recommend AOKP over AOSPx- it's been updated a little more recently, and a lot more tweaks. Stable too. However, the camera is no where up to par with the HTC Sense ones- with a sense ROM I can take digital camera quality images, whereas with the stock AOSP camera I can at best take semi okay images. Maybe not an issue, but for me it was.
ViperDHD is the best 4.x and HTC Sense ROM for our phone in terms of tweaks, but I think it's slow as a hog, although others may have different experiences.
I wouldn't go with JB if your friend needs someone else to root their phone . While it's mostly stable, battery life isn't always up to par. The only ROM I've gotten daily user battery life from is MIUI by bliind (haven't tried the knew one though)
However, my final recommendation would be Blackout ICS. It's extremely stable, is fairly fast, and has a good amount of tweaks. Sense 3.6 android 4.0.4. If you want to go with GB, go with blackice and change the dpi back to stock (240).
Better yet, check out my sig
Ok thank you for the recommendations guys ill have a look.
Cheers!

[Q] As of 2013, what is the fastest and snappiest ROM for the HTC Desire?

I know, typical question, but I haven't been keeping up with roms much for the past year or so. I have an old rooted HTC Desire and I thought I might as well give it some life. My primary concern is speed as the title suggests, I'm looking for the rom that gives the smoothest and snappiest experience possible, that is, the least amount of lag and highest frame rate that one can possibly squeeze out of the device, don't care what version of android it is and what features does it have, as long as it's crazy fast and stable enough to be a daily driver. What I should I be looking into? Cyanogen? Oxygen? some jelly bean rom?
Flashing a rom, partitioning the sd card, customizing it and install all the esential apps takes time, so I would rather do this once instead of trying a few roms and see what sticks, hence the question. Thanks in advance
I would say CM10 is the fastest out there for your Desire. I may not have an actual Desire but the phone I have, the HTC One V is almost identical specs wise to your desire and CM10 blows any ROM I've seen out of the water. Their Trebuchet launcher works hand in hand with project butter and even with my phone's ageing Adreno 205, it is much smoother than my friend's Galaxy S3 running Jellybean Touch wiz.

Well, HTC one v isn't the desire. Cm10 kind of sucks on the desire in terms of speed.
Any GB based ROM should be running smooth and snappy. My personal favorite is Cool Droid V3.
I am using Nikez JB 4.2.2. in my signature. Does the job fine for me!

Hi,
I used Mildwild 5.0 during more than 1 year, and all was smooth, fast, and stable.
Only problem i had was sometimes loosing data when battery low. (ok after reboot but a bit annoying).
Now testing 4.0.4 from Marius.a, quite satisfying even if it's only in English or Chinese (quite smooth), main functions work (a few bugs sometimes but nothing really bad).
The thing is it's the only 4.x with camera recording working fine, and i need this so...
Regards

Look in the HTC Desire HD forum
This is the HTC Desire (Bravo) section. Any ROMs from here will be very unstable on your device...
It will still come down to you testing a few ROMs and finding which is most stable for your usage.
