aosp roms & kernels. - One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

i just got my m9 and although i see a few beta builds of aosp it really seems development in that area is very limited. really no aosp based kernels either. am i missing something or did aosp development just never take off and get stable for this device?

You are right, there arent stables for now, but i guess they will come in future, cm is near to stable, a lot of bug got fixed in the last week, so its time to be patient...

I disagree. I have been running cm based Roms since I got my M9 a few months ago
Look in the development thread for the candy5 rom and the kernel named smoocha.
I'm on mobile so don't have the links.
They are 2 of the most frequently commented threads so they are always at the top.

[Q] Help: Suggest best sense-less One X ROM?

Most of the roms seem to have retained Sense 4. And the Sense roms seem to be updated more frequently.
I like the new Sense but want to try something different. I'm coming from Android Revolution which I like very much.
Want a ROM with lots of improvements to optimize performance, smoothness and speed, based on the latest ICS version, with bone-stock APKs and no bloatware.
Suggestions? What are my best couple options even....?
I'd recommend LeDrOiD and Android Revolution HD, both are updated frequently. But since HTC have not released any new software lately, there isn't much for the developers to do.
Both ROM can have Sense removed, LeDrOiD is easier in this regard.
It seems kernel is currently the hot development area.
Edit, posted irreverent info.
Thanks! I was asking about ROMS not Launchers though.
Ideally I would like a sense-less ROM that came with the stock ICS launcher (even over Apex or Nova).

try JDROID rom then or check the rom thread and see if they give the sense-less option in aroma installer..most roms now do that anyway. or just use rom-cleaner no-sense version and it does the business for you anyway
Or you could try cyanogen mod 9?

I can't claim to have given it a thorough testing, but the CM9 build available on the MoDaCo forums seemed pretty stable to me.

just by reading the changelog for me there was a few options there missing..plus the closed source attitude kinda put me off that rom anyway of Trips..the guys in the development section here are doing a far great work and are alot more helpful...so i would wait on those guys to get it up and running
I thought camera and wifi hotspot weren't working on CM9 - I use both every day.
Camera worked for me. Hotspot I didn't try, but it's the only thing listed as not working on Trip's build of CM9

Fair enough, and I don't disagree much. In Trips defense, he seems to have a rather large following singing his praises.
I only installed it for testing out GPS. I've gone back to ARHD with my own tweaks to trimming Sense.

No one is saying anything bad about him, just the guys here are open with the code that makes anyone able to help, stuff gets done faster.
Back on topic, with leedroid, pkmn and arhd(I think) you can remove sense and all its widgets and run any launcher you like.

If you're sick of Gingerbread (like CM7), there are plenty of stable and feature-ful Ice Cream Sandwich (including CM9) ROMs to try in the development forums. Aside from CM, there are also AOKP and AOSP ROMs to try. There are 4 decently stable JellyBean (including CM10) ROMs in the development forums as well, including 2 AOKP JellyBean ROMs. I strongly advise that you start by searching in the development forums yourself.
Additionally, I'm pretty sure you're posting in the wrong forum; this belongs in Q&A, not Development.

Is there any particular through which i can find all these roms for DHD?
Secondly, in most of the roms either the bluetooth is broken or the camera is buggy and I use both of these features so that's the reason why I asked for a stable rom like the cm7 because it is completely working and aa stable rom

There is a sticky at the very top of the forum that indexes all the available ROMs and links to them; doesn't get much simpler than that.
I have had no problems with either bluetooth or camera on any ICS ROMs since I first rooted my phone a month ago. JB ROMs recently got both working with minor bugs. READ the threads; they update. Each ROM OP usually includes an updated feature list. Then read at least the last 10 pages or so of the thread.

Back up your current ROM with nandroid and flash it. "Stable" and "good battery life" mean different things to everyone; I felt it was plenty stable, but see for yourself. If you don't like it, just put your backup back.

Are TW roms typically more stable than AOSP roms?

Thread title.
I was just wondering because TW roms are based on the current released version for the phone whereas AOSP roms are the latest android version ported over to the phone, is this correct?
My experience is yes, tw is more stable. Although aosp roms are for versions unreleased to our phone, such as 4.2.2. They are usually pretty stable and get better with time. It just takes time for developers to fix things. But you miss out on things such as being able to update prl or profile in the Aosp ROMs. AOSP ROMs aren't necessarily ported though, a lot are built from source, but I get what you are saying.

Thanks, for the longest time (up until today) I never saw the point in TW roms.
I was pretty naive and thought they were inferior in every way but the more I look into it I see there are lots of pros and cons to both

It really depends on who is building the Rom... right now, with them working out the bugs with the new 3.4 kernel must aosp roms are going to have some bugs.... tw is great though, more goodies in them and I generally get better performance and battery with tw roms... once the 3.4 kernel gets ironed out things should be pretty on par with tw on aosp though... I know of an almost completely stable 3.4 kernel, but it can't be mentioned here..

Carbon nightly

I put this on my device yesterday and very glad that I did.
Previously I had Hellybean, and cyanogen 10.1.3 on phone. Helly crashed too often and cyanogen was a battery hog. Plus, cyanogen is not nearly as stable as one would expect from it being such a popular Rom.
Butt I've found that carbon has all the right tweaks, battery life, etc etc.
Any thoughts on this Rom? Should I be updating it daily since it is a nightly our can I just stay with the one I have right now?

firstly, this is the wrong thread to ask something this thread is specific for development purposes, asking questions about a rom in their specific thread is ok, but for general questions there's a different part of this device's forum
secondly, its not needed to update on a daily basis, nightlies do tend to fix some sort of issue or bring some sort of improvement to the rom, its basically depending on what has changed (see the changelogs for that) in order to decide to update or not.
If the rom works as it should, then just update whenever you feel the need to update, but what i mostly do with roms like pac and such who release a new nightly every day is to download it, wait for a while and see if anyone starts complaining about issues coming with the new release, if there's none i simply flash it myself. And sometimes i simply don't feel like updating it every day and i'll wait a week or so (depending on if i'm still on that rom or if i'm trying out a new one )
nightlies don't necesarily mean that everything works as it should, instead something might get broken while something else has been fixed.
speaking of cm, there's a lot of custom roms a lot more stable than cm is, and i'm honestly not expecting for that rom to get any better with a lot of the devs leaving and starting the omnirom project
i do have high hopes for omnirom though
I'll check out ommirom.
I didn't see any listings for a section specifically for Carbon ROM. If you have a link that would be awesome.

The 10 is a different beast. It uses a Sense-based rom. There are, however, a couple of developers working on it with some limited success. I've run CM roms for years on Samsung devices until I finally bought a 10 then flashed Viper. I can tell you that Viper is the most stable and bug-free rom I've ever used. CM roms are typically riddled with bugs related to the proximity sensor and bluetooth issues. Check the xda forums for the progress of CM for the 10. Good luck, lol.

Well then you will have to get a Nexus phone. The AOSP ROM as published by Google without modifications is basically the Nexus stock ROM without Gapps. The only developers that I am aware of trying to stay as close to "pure" AOSP as possible is the JDCT developers, but they only develop for the Samsung Galaxy S4. The largest number of custom ROMS are CM-based. So, if you are wanting something close to a "pure" AOSP ROM for the HTC 10 that would be the stock ROM that came with the phone. Of course, you could root that by itself if you like.
Not good enough for me.

Yeah, enjoy that "rich" feature set of the pure AOSP rom. lol :laugh:
Cyanogen is mostly stable now. Very few bugs left. There is one AOSP based ROM I know of, but I can't personally get it to work. After optimizing apps on first boot it crashes. I'm sure they'll get it working eventually though - http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-10/development/rom-validusos-m-gzr-23-08-2016-t3446373

Same here but the earlier versions boot fine i even started from the first one and dirty flashed everyone but on the last one it wont optimize apps.there is a aokp rom also.
Sense Home is the launcher. It's pretty much stock Android. Depending on what you're after, switch launchers and you may not even see a difference.

They are working on it.. But in all fairness flash venom (MM) and the mods you want and you won't notice.. I've got the pixel launcher with a full theme and its flying just as it was in the cm roms.
When you flash viper just delete HTC sense and run any launcher you want
