I was wondering what people's opinions are on some of the newer ROMs. I'm currently running Evil Fascination v3.4.2 but I have yet to try any others and I was wondering what the general consensus is on the best ROM right now. I was trying to decide between Evil Fascination ROM, Community ROM, and CyanogenMod ROM. Which one do you think is best?
If I didn't include your ROM (or your favorite ROM), I'm not trying to offend you. It just seems that these are the most popular and most up to date ROMs available.
community is unstoppable
If you can put aside the fact that CM7 isn't fully functional, it is the most amazing rom I have ever used. Gingerbread baby!!! MIUI is awesome as well. But personally, I am an AOSP guy. I don't like TouchWiz roms.

Hey guys, been rooted ever since I got my eris, all the devs that have been working on both Froyo and 2.1 ROMS are awesome, don't know how you do what you do!
So here's my Question... When do any of you guys see a sense enabled froyo base rom? I have been switching between all the major froyo builds (tazz, kaos, celeb) and love the speed and reliability of them, but I personally like the stuff htc had done with the OS with the Sense UI. Right now I'm running EvilEris v.4, and that's working for me now, I was just wondering.
This post might do better in the general section, but everyone over here seems to know their stuff.
Thanks for any answers!!

I'm trying to port one, so if it works it will come soon.
I wish Ye luck with that. I'd like to help were I can, would be grateful. I wonder if you're doing a port from the legend or the desire?
I love SenseUI. But any Sense ROM that was 2.1 just lagged in certain areas on my phone. Would be awesome to see a Sense 2.2 ROM without any lag.
So far all of my port attempts have failed but the work continues. I personally can't stand sense ui but a froyo sense port would be sweet.

If I could make a suggestion could it be the espresso version of senseui(the one you like see on the MyTouch Slide), as I have found that to be a bit faster).
I'm also working on porting this... wish me luck!
It's great to see so many developers working on this. I'm hopeful to see one soon.

try Ivan's 1.0. I've had absolutely no lag and I've had over a month's worth of use on it all together.
until a developer comes out with the sense froyo you can alteast use the vatsense docks for launcher pro http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=743703
xtrSense will accomodate all of your needs and desires.
I like it better than AOSP Froyo ROMs. Cyanogen added features that only SenseUI had, to make AOSP Android better.
SenseUI > AOSP, and there isn't a WHOLE lot that Froyo Sense does that 2.1 xtrSense by zach.xtr doesn't already do. Just some things that he has to use apps for that Froyo has built in. No big deal.
Hey guys I'm new to the fascinate forum I currently have a vibrant a friend is getting the fascinate and I'm trying to find the best rom for them. It doesn't need much flair. Just needs to be smooth and stable preferably a 2.2 rom. Thanks guys lemme know

It comes with stock froyo (2.2) but if you are looking for a custom ROM then you should check out this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1090448
Those are the two most popular/stable custom 2.2 ROMs out there. I would read through the posts and form your own opinion. I use Evil Fascination but they are both very good. You should know that there is a high probability of a stable, fully functional custom 2.3 (gingerbread) ROM being released within the next couple of weeks.
Would love to see stable Gingerbread on my beloved Fascinate..
I have rooted my new samsung fascinate after i got the newest verizon software update last week. I then flashed the rom, evil fascination 3.6. I am certainly liking it so far but want to try others. I am just asking anyone who has a sweet looking rom or theme they would recommend? I am looking for something that is stable as well as running smoothly. And definitley has to look good lol. Please let me know everyone!
The other main option is Commuity ROM.
As for looks, go to the Themes and apps sub-forum. You can radically alter how either EF or ComROM look.
I love the CommRom but for me the battery life was horrible no matter what kernels I used.

I highly recommend staying with Evil Fascination. Been running it since May and had no problems. Plus nitro has a handfull of themes in the works for it.
Running the Comm Rom but with the leaked Gingerbread I would wait for a custom rom based on it.
Basically until we get official gingerbread source we will not have completely stable rims (gps, mute/unmute, wifi calling,etc). Is development for froyo roms completely over. I see a few and in using bionix v. Wondering if any devs willing to continue developing more awesome froyo roms. Maybe more with an aosp look. Don't recommend gb roms because I need gps and call quality for work everyday use.

Um, we do have a plethora stable roms! Just not for 2.3. You probably won't get your request filled 'less you do it yourself. Devs have taken froyo about as far as they can go. There are tons of themes and kernels out there to customize just about any froyo rom to your liking. I'm a personal fan of Bionix 1.3.1 with the Gingerbread launcher. EDT has a bunch of flavors out there, too.
I've heard the Official 2.3.4 will be out this week. (Gingerbread iirc) Any confirmation on that?
Hope I'm not breaking any rules here, as I'm an XDA noob and I sort of have that "lost sheep" feeling whilst I walk about..
But it appears that a recent ICS/JB leak for the Atrix 4G has more or less revived development for it, making me blow the dust off of my old Atrix and wanting to experiment. It's a little difficult to tell what is stable sometimes, as all ROM posts don't exactly provide a "this works" and "this does NOT work" kind of detail.
Is there a stable JB ROM at the moment?
Good chances are there aren't, and if so, is there a stable ICS ROM I can toy with?
Assuming there aren't fully-functional ROMs for either, what's the best GB ROM out for the Atrix?
Hoping I don't get yelled at for being a noob, but I appreciate any help I get. Thanks in advance!
There are stable JB ROMs out there. I'm using epinters cm10 which is running nicely although there's no hardware acceleration so the camera is a bit laggy and you're not able to use the camcorder.
As for best GB ROM anything based on cm7 is great. I thk most people would say MROM is the best out there currently. I haven't used it but you could give that a try. I was using topsmarts GB up until a few days ago which was the best GB ROM I've used in terms of speed and battery life. Currently using epinters cm10

A bunch of other "which is the best" threads have just been closed. Pretty sure this one will be too.
We don't allow "which ROM is best" threads, because we want to remain respectful to developers and ROM choice comes down to personal preference. Thanks!
