I have been very adventurous to have rooted my HTC Legend and been using Blay0 rom since then. But since B 0.8.4, it was been all bugs for me and my pc manage to corrupt my b 0.7.zip.
If anyone of you out there still have b 0.7, i would be glad if you could email it to me.
That said, i am thinking of just doing one rom for myself. I am thinking of just taking a stock Froyo and adding a2sd to it and maybe some other feature i can find online. How would i begin? I mean like, can i just take the stock rom from HTC and add darktremor a2sd into it?
EDIT: was just searching around the forum and i came up to this thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=633246
Is that enough for me to do what i want to do?
Yes if you use dsixda kitchen you can do all that, But why?? Blayo's is so good and has all the tweaks one would need!? I had the same plan and created a 2.2 Espresso ROM but never released it as blayo's is soo good!
Anyway if you want to use something as a base then i have the latest Legend update rooted in update.zip format HERE feel free to use and abuse
Hi, i love blayo rom so so much but since i upgrade to 0.8.4, it has been unstable for me. And so happened my b 0.7.zip got corrupted and i couldn't downgrade. Now i'm on the stock froyo without any tweaks but i'm still missing blayo 0.7 rom with trackball awake cpu tweaks and so on...
Hey buddy,here is a link for b-0.7. I had same issues with 0.8 so i'm using 0.7.

OMG! I'm so glad u have it! Thanks mate, thanks so much. Yeah b 0.8 has issues for me... even 0.8.4... After using the rom awhile, when ever i long press the lock button for the menu, it restarts my phone. Therefore the only way to OFF my phone is to remove the battery.

Hi people
I have got to breaking point with HTC and there update 2.1
I'm looking to install one of the Developed 2.1 release but which one should in install,there are so many. I want something stable and not buggy.
can anyone recommend me a release.
thanks j
It all comes down to personal preference but I would say that VillainRom is probably the most feature rich and is defiantly the most stable 2.1 rom there is.
One of the most stable indeed, only lacks .3gp playback but nonetheless a very nice rom!
you cab try sense hero its made from villoin.. quite nice... I have using it more around 1 week
Hands down winner for me is SenseHero 2.1
Looking forward to a fully functional Chpobus too though
sorry for the threadjacking, but i have a simular question, what 2.1 rom has support for other locale than english.
I know that the latest villain doesn't have it.

Any rom not based on the american CDMA leak should have more languages.
yo, i have to say villian rom 5.4 by far! most stable and is pretty quick! and best of all.... OTA updates! by far the best i have ever used. and the theme tht come on it is pretty slick. so i would highly recomend villian rom 5.4. and if thats not your thing try some other roms by ngprussel (spelled something like that) cus hes the best rom maker in my opinion.
thanks for the help i just downloaded 5.4 villian rom. installing do i just download and rename zip file to update??? im having a problem installing im getting a E:Failure at line 392:copy_dir PACKAGE:data DATA:
try to recopy it to your SD card, if that doesn't work download it again...it sounds like your .zip file may be corrupt. no need to rename it.

Hey guys
I am looking for a very fast and stable Custom ROM and i really can´t decide wich one to choose. Please tell me what do u think and what do u use for ur own???
I used to have this one SLIDEVILLAIN 1.1.0 RC but it was not possilble to calibrate the G-Sensor.
Sorry for my bad english
The question is, what do you want or like, you want sense? or vanilla, then 2.1 or 2.2. I use Floyo 2.2, for the stability and speed. But its up to you, just try some, not a problem to flash more then once on your phone
i would like to have the 2.2. i dunno what the vanilla looks like. i am not afraid of something diffrent then sense ok 1 point vor floyo 2.2 sofar =)
but i am a little lazy to check all the custom roms
is this Floyo 1.01 based on android 2.2 ?
tra a few roms out for yourselve and then tell us which one is the best

No custom rom has this option afaik... Its cuz the devs dont believe us and tell us to rotate the phone in crazy directions to reset the sensor.... (like that ever worked)....
Anyway there is a manual way to do it. First you need to find your values takes about 3-15 mins. Then always when reflashing changing to those values (1min)
You wont do it so many times so there is no problem. (am lazy to find you the guide , use search)
You want a 2.2? How about a 2.2.1? Sinpkrs- cronos froyo 1.4.2

You are using SlideVillain? Get "Bubble" from Market to calibrate G Sensor
where can i download the cronos rom? i have searched the thread but i didn find a dl link
in this thread i just wantet to ask which rom is often used by users in this forum

I'm looking at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=911364 and cannot work out if I've downloaded the correct file from the 2nd post or what to do with the rar once I've unpacked it?
I've already had a play with z's free x10 b3 & b4 & wolfbreaks CM6.1.3 v05, and I'm up to speed on flashing baseband via flashtool, so I'm not totally new to his, but I downloaded from the third link in the 2nd post and extracted but cannot find a zip file to use with xrecovery.
Is this ROM installed differently? Am I doing something wrong?
Any help woud be greatly appreciated!
look for: Update.zip
When you extract the .rar file there shoiuld be a file called update.zip. This is the file you can use from within xRecovery.
But why should you use v10. v11 is out and some of us experience less WLOD's.
v11 works for me, also with update.zip.
Good luck!
Thanks for the info, I'll give it a go at some point this week.

I'm on the newest version 2.2.1 from Cyanogen right now.
Whats the different with this one?
I mean not the differents between 2.2 and 2.3 but: what is working already in 2.3?
There are camera issues. The camera app isn't working which means that you will not be able to take images.
You will experience random system reboots.
Basically for me 2.2 froyo rom us more stable than cm7

Thanks for the info.
I will wait till the 2.3.3 version is more stable.
Having done a bit more reading I think I'll stick with CM6 based ROM's for now, let CM7 become a little bit more stable!
Hopefully it'll be before SE release the 2.3 update
Knowing our devs it definitely will be : )
Yeah, I'm fairly new to these boards but I've been pleasantly surprised by the speed of new releases and updates for the ROM's that I've been using.
I'm still in the procss of trying to decide which ROM is best for me, so I'm having to go through constant reinstalls of all my apps and so on which is a nuisance but worth it for the improved speed & functionality!
psx you should use "my backup root" for all your apps so you dont constantly reinstall them.

Hi, is there a link to a guide to install Cyanogen on my x10. I have gingerbread 2.3 at the moment and my phone is rooted. Need basic info.
Thanks
Hy everybody. I just bought a Htc Hero and I`m wondering wich is the best rom to put on it? thanks
It depends what you're looking for really.
VillainROM 13 is like stock, has HTC Sense, but quick, like very quick!
My personal favourite is RCMix 2.2. It is a Sense ROM but has a few nice visual tweaks.
And there's Cyanogen. They've recently dropped support for the Hero, but the nightly releases aren't too bad.
Basically just try as many as possible and see how you get on with them.
I would like to know which one is the most stable, without any bugs, fastest etc.
I have installed Villainrom v13. It's really fast, but I think there is a bug, because my battery drains empty in 6-12 hours, when on my original ROM it held for 24-30 hours.
Hi
Hello I am wondering the same thing. I have installed a 2.3 version and I am not that happy although some things are better everytime I go to the home screen it has to load which never happened with my stock 2.1 Orange rom.
Anyone can recommend a ver stable and fast rom would be much appreciated?

Hi! I looked into the VillainROM 13 but its only Android 2.1 I really need 2.2 for app2sd and also sharepoint. Do you have a link to the other roms you recommended? And are they easy to install with rom manager and the recovery software that comeswith that?
Thanks mate
Yes, we are newbees on Android and we need your opinions.I have now on my phone Android version 2.3.2, tasty version gingerbread 2.0, kernel version 2.6.29.6-RaKern-200 [email protected] #14, Baseband version 63.18.55.06pu_6.35.15.11. IS THIS A GOOD ROM? What are his advantages and disadvantages? Thanks everybody in advance & sorry for my bad english
I've tried a few ROM's. I've got backups of Villain13, Elelinux 7, and Floyo.
At the moment, for daily use I'm on Floyo 1.2. I have been using Elelinux, and in general it's a nice ROM but the black screen bug that you have probably heard about is rather annoying. Hopefully with the discussions between Erasmux and Elelinux they will come up with an idea to get Cyanogen Hero dev back under-way.
But for day-to-day use I'd go Floyo 1.2. You can flash a gingerbread theme if you really have to. I find its rock solid and the kernel can be overclocked via flashing.
Also, Apps2SD is supported (old fashioned style). If you have a fast SD card, why bother with the Google version?
Good luck, and if there is any help I can offer....
Tbh if you want a fast stable driver, that you'll use daily then i'd use VR13. Froyo and Gingerbread have never been officially released for Hero so using Rom's based on these android versions means you will encounter a few bugs and some lag. If you really need App2SD then you could use dark tremor's script which will install it for you. I'm gonna post up my own 2.1 rom which will have App2SD enabled if you wanna try it. But from experience of nearly every hero rom available on xda, VR13 is the best.
Thanks JieHD, could you plese tell me were I can foun this rom, and a quick guide to intall it om my Hero? Thanks in advance
TBH i've never had lag on Floyo, or any other problem for that matter. The only thing is you don't get the HTC add-ons.
VR13 is good, but I do miss Friendstream. Been using the one out of Launcher Pro.... Each to their own.....
My advice, flash one, try it for a while. Do a full backup in Rom Manager. Then flash another.... But beware, you will become addicted to flashing (ROM's that is).
As I said earlier, I keep a few on my SD card. So easy to restore in Rom Manager...
Anybody could tell me how to install a new rom on my Hero and how to get rid of the old one?

should be up soon, to install:
1. Boot into rcovery
2. wipe data
3. wipe cache ( if you use it )
4. wipe dalvik-cache ( this is in advanced options if you use cwm )
5. install rom from sd card
6. reboot, should take about minutes
As a side note, just for a nicer user experience -- download spare parts+ frm market and set windows animation to fast and transition animations to fast. and tick fancy input animations
I will lose my apps and data on my phone? How can I backup them?
use titanium backup from the market
If you tried out my rom, tell me what you think

i was tested a lot of roms and finally my favourite rom is VILLAINROM V.13 because is soo STABLE (IMPORTANT),works fast...,and the most important for me: has sense widgets for drain battery i´m ussing flykernel 12a with O/C, SETCPU at 514 mhz conservative.(battery drains empty in 24 hours more or less)...
if there was some froyo rom with sense and working camera It would be brilliant because chocolate froyo for example works well

Tried it this morning, was nice a smooth, just the icons were not to my taste, if I get some spare time over the weekend I'll knock up an alternative framework, being elderly I find the circle battery meters hard to read when they have numbers in the middle, or that could just be this mornings hangover

AFAIK, you can use the original SE libs in every 2.1 ROM, so you would just have to copy the libs and then all bugs should be fixed.

HTC's Sense is not an android version. it is a user interface over the android OS.
