As far as I know, we haven't had a true, clean, non-CM, AOSP ROM since 2.1 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=773127&highlight=Vanilla). I tried with Froyo with only partial success. It seems that the mods that the CM team has done allow us to work around the fact that HTC hasn't given us new drivers & libs since 2.1 and we are still on a 2.6.29 kernel. So, that's why you see new CM ROMs, but not AOSP.
That's how I understand it anyway. As always, feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.
And feel free to prove me wrong by building a GB AOSP ROM! I'd love to see one. It's nice to have options.

It's beeing done bro.. well so I'm told that's what it is

cool, got it loaded and on nand for later toying. Up to now I've been using a market GB launcher port (Launcher2 its called) on CM7 when the mood hit for a vanilla GB feel (which makes it feel very simular to this rom). I cant explain but there's an envy I get everytime I look at a vanilla nexus gingerbread (and its not the phone). I also had this complex with asop froyo but got over it.

I guess i should of looked for related threads. I have gingertazz 15 installed. Do you need to do a full wipe or can just delete the secure folder and install version 17? Thanks and your work is just awesome.

Safest is always full wipe, but if noone in the Tazz 17 thread has said what worked for them, you could do a nandroid, just wipe Dalvik (not .android-secure) and flash over. Then if it gives trouble, nandroid restore your backup, backup your apps your favorite way (if you want to), then do a full wipe and flash, then restore your apps.

Froyo with Flash??

Hello XDA im a eris-aholic and im looking for a froyo rom with flash. So far ive only found 2. 1 roms that have flash but no 2.2's or am i missing something? Pls help!!
Sent from my FroyoEris using XDA App
The only one that I know of is the KaosLegendary v.19 ROM. It's a Wildfire Port, but is very visual rough and still in the alpha phase but flash does really work (probably thing that works really well as of right now). Hope this helps :3
Edit:
The reason for this is that to have Flash 10.1 of the Eris you either need to port it on the back of another 2.2 sense ROM or build it on top of out default 2.1 sense ROM with flash lite. Most (maybe all) other 2.2 ROMs for Dorid Eris are ASOP (cyanogen) which doesn't work well when mixed with the Eris and Flash.

Sent from my FroyoEris using XDA App
Ok so I'm. Going to assume that install through pc to kaos 37 also wouldn't work well then. Is like to have the best of both worlds but legendary is still alpha and kinda funky atm IMHO. any other input would be great
Sent from my FroyoEris using XDA App
I've had flash running on every 2. 1 sense Rom that I've flashed, but so far no luck with the 2.2 because they are all cyanogen. As of last night or the night before, the htc gratia was ported to the Eris. It's the first "working" 2.2 SENSE Rom for us. Only problem is that its still very very rough.. setup is in Chinese, no WiFi, camera issues, and to turn it off you have to do a battery pull. So, maybe in a few weeks some of our great devs will have that Rom running smoother and reliably, and maybe then, flash will work on it. Even then, there may still be issues =/ we'll see tho! Hope this helps!

Or a couple of days lol. There's a few versions out now like tenzos and tazz's. Both are already looking very good.
Sent from my FroyoEris using XDA App
IMO Tenzo is on the forefront of making a useable functional 2.2 Sense ROM for our Erii.
+1 for Tenzos 2.2 Sense rom.
So far I've demo'd them both and tenzo is definitely closer to completion even though it still has bugs.... ill probably go with tenzo unless kaos pulls this through quick
And clean

Which ROM?

Which Rom do you guys suggest? I've tried KaosFroyo, and no offense, but I wasn't blown away. I'm currentlly running TazzFroyo v14 vanilla and love it, but I'm curious about Nonsensikal v10.8.1 [Froyo|Black&Blue|Vanilla]. Which do you suggest?
Tazz v14 or Nonsensikal v10.8.1
THank you!

This may not be what you are looking for, but hands down the best I have tried are the XtrRom and XtrSense ROMs.
THE most stable operating and has the best battery life I have used since rooting months ago. I love these ROMs!
Good luck!

The only thing that held me back from trying the XTR ROMs is that I don't have Amon's recovery image, which they both require. I know this is probably a dumb question, but if I wanted to use those roms how do I get the image?

Instead of doing that though; you should really look in to figuring out how to push Amon's on to your phone through the great guides on the forum. It may take a little time, but it REALLY helps when something goes wrong (and things really do go wrong from time to time) so that you're not like "oh ****, I'm screwed" and then fly off the handle.
The guys here are WONDERFUL at helping out -- and you can always jump in to IRC and ask specific questions. I got stuck just last week and I went in, and Conap himself helped me reinstall his ROM from the ground up (and I was stuck in stock 1.5 w/ no root lol). The other guys were also very nice and helpful, and it's a really good vibe.
I feel like a hippy saying all this sh*t, but seriously dude -- try it out. Never hurts to learn -- and from what I've experienced personally, practice gets you better every time.
PS: I like CELB -- I'm about to flash Tazz Vanilla 14 or 15 (whatever the current build is) though to try it out.

What ROM do you like best?

Just out of curiosity, what Rom is everyone currently using and what is your favorite and why? I'm currently using CM7 and I do love it.

Of course that's my first choice...but cm7 is definitely my second favorite rom
Cm7 had a few bumps along the way but sticking it out has definitely been worth it. Everything runs better than perfect. Great wifi, gps that locks in under 10secs, super smooth and super fast. Not to mention an amazing amount of customizability.
Oh and lets not forget the amazing kernel drowning has made for cm7.

You flash it just like a rom; wipe cache/dalvik from recovery and flash the zip. And of you ever want the stock kernel back you just wipe cache/dalvik and re-flash cm7. You wont lose any data/settings.

Thank you very much! Just flashed it. It's so nice to be back to loving my phone again
I'm a big fan of Liberated 2.2.2, I think I was using it the first day I had my phone. Everything is working perfect and with moderate use I can squeeze 2 days out of the battery. I live in a little bit of a valley so at home I put the phone on Edge and use wifi if I want to go online. Haven't tried CM7 in a few months so I probably will again at some point, just being lazy. CM7 or CM8 w/sense 3.0? When that gets released I'll be all over it!
Ditto-ed on CM7, did it for a friend, and all his friends on the later models (stock roms wildfire s and like) are still wowing XD

[Q] Barebone (i mean barebone!) ROM based on 2.2?

Ok, sorry to bring this Q here. I know i know - go look, search, find out. I hear you.
Been researching for a full day. But somethings require YOUR experience.
I am looking for a stable (!), good-battery (!) and bare-bone (minimal) ROM for my Vibrant.
(maybe my hate from running background stuff comes from ignorance, since I am no wiz when it comes to android)
I use GMAIL, Whatsapp, and Google Voice, and I can't stand running processes
Is there a ROM that you know to be made with this in mind?
Thanks !!!
