Best Rom for HTC Hero? - Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey Guys,
i just get my HTC Hero and i want to flash some nice roms. Off course, there is no best rom, but give my some "must flashed"- Roms
Whats your fave?
Greetz
Jonas

I have [3.0.1] AychTeeSee's Vanilla Cupcake ROM but you should only flash it if you want the original vanilla look or a REALY speeeeedy rom

I like TheAshMan's Defiance. Great rom using 2.1 Sense UI.

is it fast? like i said in my last post the rom that im using is realy fast so i dont really want to use a "slower" rom

Man meake a poll !!!
Me vote for BeHero 1.2.5

Which one have an outstanding battery life on the the eclair roms?

tbh, id say villian, teh development is healthy the rom is super fast and its the sense ui. Also, likely to have a nicer ui soon as was in 3.0. Check the thread out youll see the number of responses i think speaks for itself.

fastest? Imho is sensehero 1.5 by stickman

Best 2.1/2.2(if possible) rom avaliable?

I am currently using Roufianos v1.1 rom on my gsm Htc Hero, but its not 100% stable. Im looking to find a fast, 100% stable, feature packed rom. I've tried villain 10 but had problems with that any suggestions?
Please post in General or QnA next time.

???? thats oooolldd
The best one is available at htcpedia. It is Pauls repack of the Taiwan update with some goodies that Benhaam added. Ridiculously fast and extremely stable. I've tried Rufianos and Villain 10 and both have their problems. Been using the one from htcpedia for 3 days now without one single problem. It's awesome.
Cronos Droid
Cronos is the best IMO. It's really fast and very stable. By far the best roms I have tried.
Feeyo is just uploading a new version 1.7 based on the official HTC release now which I think which might be up tonight.
Edit: It's been postponed til tomorrow. Still go with the 1.5.1 release its awesome and is still 2.1
feeyos cronos 1.7 has been delayed until tomorrow

Old but good!
No problems and stable.
All custom roms have any bugs.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=694786
definitely the best one 2.1 rom.. nothing added and not overclocked with no problems after 4-5 days using.
I hope someone will make one based on the official 2.1 for hero and removes all the non-sense (see what I did there? )

Been using that one since the 4th as well. No issues with it whatsoever.
I am looking for a super stable Vanilla ROM without extra stuff like OC, Apps2SD n all that.
Any suggestions?

[Q] Most stable sense rom?

Hey everyone. Just a quick question. I'm looking to update my girlfriend's phone from evil eris 3.0, and I'm hoping you can recommend the best performing, most stable rom/ kernel combination that includes the sense ui. Thanks in advance.

None of them are very supported right now what with GB and Froyo being the flavors most sought after, but you can't go wrong with Tenzo's xtrRCmix or zach's xtrSense, either one is easily stable enough to be used as a daily from now till Armageddon, well either that or until someone actually finds a way to make a stable Sense 2.2 ROM.
I use xtrSENSE, and I put it on my girlfriend's phone as well. I love it. She loves it. It's very fast, and very stable. You wont be disappointed.
Awesome. Thanks guys!
Will i need to flash a kernel as well?

For xtrSENSE, xtrRCMix, either of the PlainJanes - no, you will not.

Nope, everything you need is in the Rom. It's got a few interesting extra bits included, configures memory more efficiently, has scripts to remove crap like the peep and stocks apps, and over- and underclocks by default to 710/245 Mhz.
Really very nice and complete.

You don't have too, but I promise you that you will have better battery life with Conap's V9 and it will more than likely run smoother as well.

[Q] New to Thunderbolt, what ROM??

I am coming over from Tmobile...I have had the Nexus 1, G2, Mytouch4g, and G2x all rooted with custom roms. I see the Thunderbold has a ton of Gingerbread ROMS...Any advice?? Pro's/Con's???
wow, guess there is not that many Thunderbolt folks here....Over in the G2x forums Q's get answered pretty quick...
You're not getting responses because there are a zillion threads like this already. Just read the rom features, look at the screenshots & pick one. If it fits your style, stick with it. If not, try another. Your first step should be deciding if you want Sense or no Sense, then go from there.

I don't run GB because of the buggyness of it, but you GBRemix seems to be a good choice.

then you might want to go a froyo route. Das BAMF remix is very popular. I'm running the stripped (non-sense) version right now.
Then go with a Froyo-based rom. More battery & less bugs

ZACHARiAS_ thank you,let me try it .
im currently using a 2.1 custom rom with sense. sense has a couple feautures that i like. but ive been keen to try cronos ginger 2.3 with super kernel
lemme know what you've tried.
kudos
Hey, i am using Elelinux 2.8 which is a fantastic room... hardly any force closes, great battery life and also.. its pretty nippy.. Angry Birds the game runs pretty neatly on it to.
u can even try the new 2.3 rom. sense based. it is a htc salsa rom ported to our hero n trust me it works just fine. few issues, but they don't matter, at least to me

I would rather say Salsasense has great potential but it doesn't work fine yet. Besides the force closes, it's pretty laggy when there is anything calculated in background and apps need more time to start. If that would get fixed, it would be a great rom.
Also have a think about why you want to do this. You're entering a world of geek, and the only ROM that's guaranteed not to have problems is the stock one. That said, you should have had an OTA update taking you at least to 2.1...
Go for the cronos gingerbread roms. They are stable and fast. And get enough updates.

Cronos is nice. but if you want speed do not go for any GB roms. but go for eclair or froyo. GB is just a little to heavy..

have you tried Cronos Hero latest? its running really smooth for me with cpu at 672mhz. battery lasts 2 days with normal use
Rom
I use Elelinux-7.1-Hero-v3.6 Android 2.3.7 and I am really happy. Everythings works, it is really fast and I got up to 2 days battery life (I use fly mode at night)
2.3.7 LiGux (Coopoui) (RC2.0) is also very fast and nicely themed by Lirasina.

[Q] Whats is the fastest rom on HTC Hero?

Hi,
i just like to know what is the fastest Roms on HTC Hero (without lags)
can someone tell me or give me list of roms that are fasts please
Thank you in advance!!
I second this...
I haven't flashed a new ROM for some time, but I'm starting to get lots of force closes.
I was going to just upgrade phones, but I just love the simplicity of the CDMA Hero.
So what ROM is the cleanest? No bells & whistles, just reliable, fast, and smooth...
With sense:
Elelinux 2.1 reloaded
Villainrom 13
Maybe herolatte
Aosp:
Floyo
Speedmachine
Froydvillain
If you want to know the difference between Aosp and sense look into one of the infinite threads which have about the same name as this one...

If you mean official Rom, then no. There isn't even an official 2.2 Rom from HTC to the hero.

I've tested a lot of Roms and for me Elelinux 3.* is the fastest one

i agree
If you want speed and incredible battery life (over 4 days on idle and 2 on heavy usage) you can try Villainrom vr13 with adw launcher or with sense itself.
Its clean and runs like a coyote. BIP BIP!
The CronosFroyo or CronosGingerX roms... by a mile...
As for me, the best way to know that is to try out some ROMs because it all depends on how you use your phone(wifi or network, sense or adw launcher, widgets or no widgets...)
So...try some roms
