Need a Vanilla 2.1 Rom w/ superuser - Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've been browsing through the Roms forum looking for a stock, fully functional 2.1 (non-Sense) rom that includes Superuser. The best I've found is ErisLightningBolt, but that is based off of Cyanogen. I also saw Senseless, but that seems to have never been updated from the initial version and still has bugs. Anyone know of a good Vanilla rom?

try search.
EDIT: I just did a search of vanilla on the DEV thread and had 68 items found.

Didn't I post here already? Must have lagged or something.
Jrozga, those vanilla things aren't relevant to what he's looking for. There are very few vanilla 2.1 ROMs and most of them are lacking. I prefer vanilla but it's difficult to get 2.1 roms that way. If you're looking for a true vanilla fully functional rom I suggest Froyo CM6 or KF or CELB 6, all vanilla.

Either way he's asking others to do the work for him without searching. Looking over 68 threads with vanilla in the title would provide him with all the roms he is looking for. And froyo is 2.2 aosp my friend.

Of course it is. I'm just saying if you're looking for aosp the best we can offer is a 2.2 ROM. The 2.1 ROMs are just not up to par. Granted it's very difficult to make vanilla ROMs. I took evil eris and made it semi-vanilla when I used it but still, my point remains valid: 2.2 roms are the best aosp we have.

Aren't these ROM suggestions bases off Cyanogen?

Kaos Froyo isn't I don't believe. It may have changed. The other two are though. Why don't you want cyanogen based? IT's still vanilla.

Tainted Vanilla.. you cant go wrong with that.. Hoban knows how to make a rom.. and he made that 1 PERFECT!

White widow is pretty good. Fast and stable

I don't mean to be a pain, but I have searched. I had only found a few Vanilla 2.1 roms, but most of them had bugs or still missing features. I mainly wanted a stock rom to maximize battery life. Right now I am using KaosFroyo and yes it is fast but my battery life is much worse then it was on the stock Sense rom. Either way thank you guys for the help.

Sense uses more ROM, Froyo is really supposed to use much less bttery... try another froyo ROM. My suggestion is the one in my sig.
Otherwise try Plain Jane or CTRom. Those are good stock 2.1's.

Sitting on the fence... all the ROMS seem to be not worth it.

After reading this forum for quite a while, am i the only person who's sitting on the fence when it comes to ROMs?
All the ROMs which i checked out have one problem or another.... either not stable, slower than stock, buggy, or lack in one department or another. I don't really see the point of updating to any ROMs if there are some unresolved issues.
Is there any 2.0 based roms which are not buggy and which have all functions working perfectly? Or should i wait until the official ROM comes out?
copying my thread?
forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=627494
Didn't see your thread... sorry. Seems like we are in the same boat.
that is why i stay with modaco rom xD faster then the original & keep those most function with speed boost.
Seems to be the sae reasonas to why im also trying to dig into customising roms. Though,thus far, any un-official rom i have tested thus far seems to be atleast just as stable as any official rom, except they tend to be alot faster. Might be worth it to try and get some sort of guide started once i know how it all works. One of the issues i didnt manage to find anything on yet is signing a modified rom .zip-archive.
One thing ill definately share when ive completed it will be a very stripped down sense 2.1 rom, and then try to see where i can get from there. Im currently in-between villain rom and the 1.6 beta rom with cooker app, switching back and forth from one another...
Atleast that tought me how to backup and restore things should i keep you all updated if anything changes?
How do you like villain? have you tried kagu? I'm undecided between the two..
i'm using ckdroid ... it's quite fast. very stable and fulfills all of my needs
if you don't really need / want a 2.x rom you should definitly go with modaco for the great tweaks and speed improvements!
also, the first ported roms from cyanogen are being released!
most of present quirks come from drivers not being available for 2.x roms from htc because they haven't realeased them in their own 2.x rom yet. just be a little more patient.
there are already rumors of an official 2.1 htc rom with sense coming out in the beginning of march

As the Villain chef, you'd possibly expect me to promote my own rom. However, I find Kagu to be an outstanding rom. lox has done a great job with it. If I wanted a quick, Vanilla, feature-rich rom, I'd go with Kagu.
I love Sense UI though... hence Villain.
Kagudroid is good, CKDroid is awesome, but they are both Vanilla roms.
I like Villain ROM much better because of Sense UI, even though it's still a bit buggy and is a little slower. totally worth it for me.
You've obviously not been 'round the Dream parts of the forum...

which rom is the most stable

Can someone tell me which Rom is more stable and has best features I have Droid Eris Verizon phone
honestly, I think it has to do alot with the phone in question as to how stable it is. you can read up on the different roms and see how some find each one very stable and some dont. as far as best features, well thats up to you. What I might like or want you might not. I have personally run Ivans 1.0 and Sense-able 3.1, and am sticking with Sense-able for now at least
this same question has been asked a dozen times...
my personal favorite is Senseable 3 by jamezelle, but for most stock looking, Eris Official by ivanmmj would work just as well. Some people say Evil Eris or Tainted Vanilla are fast as well. just personal preference.
iam using sense able 3 and so far it has been stable i had few issues with it but it now resolved thanks guys for the help
glad you got one. i have been using senseable for a while now, absolutely love it.
Ivan's Eris_Official 1.0.
I like plain old sense UI, and Ivan has been cooking ROMs for years. It's perfect, fast, and looks like Sense UI is supposed to look. Perfect and stable.

not to be rude but thats kinda what you gotta do is make a night of it and dl the roms you wanna try out and just see what you think of each one.... ive ran 2.1, 2.2, 2.2.1 and personally i like conap roms, all of his stuff has been super reliable for me...all the roms out there are gonna be snappy and quick it just comes down to your own prefrence, i might like vanilla and you might like sense.

sense or any other type of rom it doesn't really matter to me. I am just looking for the fastest and most reliable rom.
Its all personal preference, and downloading/testing a few is your best option to find the fastest/clean running ROM for you. Some Eris' act up on certain ROMS whereas others wont. Ill personally tell you that my phone was laggy and force closed alot when I used some of the Eris 2.1 sense ROMS, even with overclocking. Keep in mind though that I was the only person having those problems on ROMS that worked great for many. Now I run CM Froyo ROMS and those tend to satisfy my needs. IMO Nonsesikal has worked best for me, particularly Vanilla 13.7. That version isnt on the ROM thread either. You'll have to go to the thread, click to download an older version, and it'll take you to the site that has all versions for download. Give 13.7 a shot if you'd like, but remember that it may take a few ROMS before your happy.

I liked nonsensikal as well. I just rely on my phone a lot, and with the Froyo ROMs, I invariably run into a bug that I don't have time to workaround, so I switch back to xtrSense. It's fast and its stable. Thats why I like it. But I do have a wandering eye.

thanks. anyone else
i been using froShedYo and it works perfect for me.. best rom ive used by far
I've said this elsewhere but I'll repeat it. +1 xtrSENSE or xtrROM. They were so good that they are what remained on my phone for the longest periods of time (3-4 months) and the ONLY reason that I moved on from them is that they worked so well (i.e., reliable) that I was bored and wanted to tinker more. LOL. I'm very serious, though.
If I had to choose one over the other, I'd probably choose xtrSENSE. Or at least start with that and if you get comfortable enough with that, you could move to xtrROM later.
I like xtrSense too. It's just fast without the extra bugs or anything. The only bug I have is the 50% cell time standby bug but I think that's dependent on the phone.
CELB most definately if you like CM and Froyo.
FroShedYo is a tie, if you want something customized/themed. V6 is my fav. Haven't tried V7 yet, but I would guarantee its stable, fast and it has the same theme as V6. Also the purple is really cool. That's what my wife is using.

sense rom

hi could someone please tell me which sense rom to use on my hero as there is just so much to choose from im sure all are good but I would like the best out of the available ones please thanks , im currently using elinux froyo 2.2.1
Well, first of all this should be posted in the Q&A section, but VillainROM 12 is prob your best bet for all round stability and performance. It's based on 2.1 though so bare that in mind as you are coming from a Froyo 2.2 build.
It's been a while since I used a Sense ROM (got addicted to 2.2 stock) but the best was VillainRom12 or MoDaCo. There are ports of Sense for 2.2 around, but as far as I know they all have hardware issues (such as camera or wi-fi not working).

[Q] Custom ROMS for ED05??

So I am new to the Fascinate portion of XDA and I was inquiring if there are any ROMs available for the ED05 version. I am a fan of the MIUIWiz rom but I'm honestly a flashaholic. Going from HTC to Samsung is like speaking another language. Time for a drink! Thanks in advance.

So far, the newest ROMs available are based on ED01. Some people want a ROM based on ED05, but since CM7/MIUI/AOSP became fully functional on the Fascinate, development on the TouchWiz Froyo ROMs has stopped. Correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems everyone wants to get rid of Samsung's coding and software and just move to AOSP asap. Maybe someone will get bored one day and make a ROM out of the ED05 base, who knows?
If you're a fan of MIUIWiz, you might want to check out the full version of MIUI for the Fascinate over here.

And welcome to the Fascinate Section of XDA!
I really wish someone would develop a Touchwiz rom i've been on Evil Fascinate since 3.5. I hate how bloated cm7 is, and MIUI is too iphonish not to mention the loss of the touch wiz camera. I would go back to MIUI if I could get the touchwiz cam, and I also like the TW4 launcher, but the SGSII will be out soon so I'll just be patient.

CM7 is bloated? In what way? I only ask because I've been on it since jt's 7/17 release and haven't found any bloatware...
That said, the most consistently positive experience I've had on this phone is still UKB 2.1 (a Froyo Touchwiz based rom). The devs basically took Samsung's shoddy "work" and overhauled it, resulting in what many still consider to be the best Fascinate Rom overall. It is also (to the best of my knowledge) the most recent and complete Touchwiz rom.

Yes, I hope new TouchWiz Based Rom ( ED05 base on,look like Evil Fascination or CR2.1 ^_^ ) because not at all people in there want to flash AOSP ROM like CM7 or MIUI, they miss, and need TouchWiz Based ROM ( me too ^_^ ).
I think that Touchwiz ROM is really stable and smooth ( don't try to compare with AOSP ROM ), and I'm very happy if someone made another Touchwiz based ROM
It should also be noted that the only GB source our devs have access to is EC09, which is fundamentally borked (eats SD cards, for example). Until a stable GB source is released / leaked (looks unlikely), the majority of existing Fascinate Touchwiz Roms probably won't see an official stable build past ED01 Froyo; stuck with a startlingly buggy Gingerbread source, it's very difficult for developers to justify dedicating their efforts to an apparent dead end.

If no one is willing to make an ED05 rom, I might be up for it. I'm messing around with de-odexing the ED05 base, but my experience is limited. If I do make one, it might be a simple debloated ROM without any framework mods. Also, the only ED05 kernel is stock right now, so no Voodoo sound or color.

That pretty much explains it all. Dev's hated working on the outdated Froyo base, and the GB leak was very buggy, so it wasn't worth it.
