Sorry I've been gone for a while, and my old thunderbolt is still running a Senseless version of Gingertheory (gingerbread) Rom, I would like to upgrade to a newer gingerbread rom now...what is the ASOP stuff? please enlighten me on which Rom I should run...I've got a replacement phone from Verizon, my text messages were all screwed up and not coming in properly. Anyways. I guess I should download clockwork mod on my new phone.
I don't need bloatware, just basics and a fast phone with good battery life.

The best GB Rom is whichever one you like.
for sense it would be a theory rom. for aosp either liquid or theory.
I am currently running gingeritis3D and i love it. I have not ran any other GB roms but i dont feel the need to. This rom is kicka$$ and so smooth. Got all the sense 3.0 goodies and the only bug that i know of an issue with voicemail which i fixed by just using google voice. I really highly recommend it
I was also told that the latest version (VIII) i based of the latest GB leak so its very stable
So what is ASOP? Can someone explain to me? Is it Senseless??

"Sense ROMs: Sense ROMs are built from RUUs, either officially released or leaked. An RUU is the complete update file for a handset; including the bootloader, radio, and ROM. Currently, all Gingerbread Sense ROMs are based on leaked RUUs. Each RUU has a version number, for example 2.10.605.0. The higher the number, the newer it is. Newer is generally better. Devs will usually include the base RUU version number in their OP. I like to think of custom ROMs developed on a common base as a family of sorts. They're going to generally have some similarities. They can have major differences as well. Some things about them won't ever change though.
Sense ROMs come in many flavors; 2.1, 2.1/3.0 hybrid, 3.0. It's really hard to tell what you like until you play with some and get to know them.
AOPS ROMs: AOSP ROMs are not built from leaked or released RUUs. They are built upon code obtained through the Android Open Source Project and are custom built for the devices. HTC, and manufactures in general, don't support AOSP being developed for their device. As a result, AOSP devs basically have to figure it out for themselves which makes the ROMs much more experimental. These ROMs typically come out in 1 or more versions, usually identified by date of release if it's a final release version, or an RC (release candidate) version if it's still in beta testing. Think of the version number and RC/beta number like the RUU number of a Sense ROM. For instance, CM7.0.3 may have several release versions that are only very slightly different. Then you may have several CM7.1.0 Beta or RC candidates that may less stable, but being offered for real world use and user feed back. That's basically the picture for the dInc currently, not the Tbolt, so don't quote me. CM releases are generally going to all look and feel the same and carry the same group of features. OMFGB is going to be making a name for itself with different features and characteristics. You won't know which you like until you try them."

I have tried most sense based ROMs, I keep going back to Gingeritis 3D. BAMF is a close second, all other ROMs I have tried I get FC issues, and other wierd **** where I will just flash back to 3D. Keep in mind, each phone is different, so results will vary. Try them all out, nandroid is your friend!

Hi All,
I'm much more familiar with WM ROMs, but I'm dealing with my wife's HTC Hero and trying to make sense of the Android World. Her phone is running Orange UK stock firmware 1.5, build 2.73.61.5. My first instinct was to upgrade to the latest firmware available (2.1 I guess) but it sounds like these ROMs are still a bit experimental, which isn't going to go down well
Could someone with a good broad knowledge of the available ROMs please recommend the latest ROM which is going to be stable, feel complete and not result in complaints of 'it was better before'? The main aim is to run the version of Google Maps necessary for turn-by-turn navigation. I guess there are a few extra steps to get this working in the UK, but I heard this was possible.
Thanks!
It is possible, but you'll need 1.6 or above.
As 1.6 isn't available, you're looking at one of the experimental roms. The downside is, most of them don't work with Google Nav in the UK. The one that does seems to be Kagudroid, but it's an AOSP. No Sense UI at all... no facebook sync, no automatic backlight, no fancy time widgets. You get my drift?
I'd recommend either you wait until late feb (after HTC release official 2.1 rom), then there'll be a host of excellent ones up for grabs. In particular, from Modaco/Lox/Benhaam.
I imagined that there would be a few mature ROMs based on 1.6 because it's been out for so long. If there are, is there any reason not to install one of these then unlock Google Nav separately (like showthread.php?p=5122811#post5122811). [Sorry, not allowed to post links with my account!]

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...
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?

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.
What is the best rom for the htc rezound? I want to have the latest version of android and sense for the htc rezound with everything working. I think the latest is android 4.0.4 and sense 4.0
What ROM are you using? If you are on S4, then you are using a custom ROM. Our "official" ICS only has Sense 3.6
BTW, wrong place to put this...not being a jerk about it like some will, but this should be in Q & A
Post one thread, one time, in the correct section please
Please delete this post. Sorry for posting in wrong forum.
Best ROM?
Well, if you insist on ICS, your choices are OK.
But, until the approved ICS rom appears, you may
get the best battery mileage with the latest GBread 2.01.605.11.
I have tried them ALL, and come back to a daily driver
of GB that's rooted and cleaned out with Titanium Backup.
It runs smooth, no FC's, and does everything I need without
any issues. Only the programs I use are installed or
loaded on startup. Once you get it the way you like, Nandroids will
allow you to jump around, try new stuff, then go back to what you like.
Venasaur 3.2 or cleanrom dev 1.4. Period.!

The best ROM is which ever ROM runs the best on your phone.
From my experience, the best way is to read the OP of the ROMs you are interested in, narrow it down to say 3-4 ROMs and try them out.
There is a good amount to choose from, GingerBread, ICS sense 3.5 to Sense 4.0
it looks like miui has even come too.
I will not go into anything DEV related, as I don't use ROMs based on the Dev, I use it based on how well it runs on my phone.
Nils' Business ICS 4.1 is my choice for Sense 3.6 out of everything I've tried. Great sound quality for Bluetooth audio. Everything works, no FCs, smooth, great theming. Love it!

Ineffabilis Deus has been by go to rom as of late.

This is totally subjective, but the first step is to figure out if you like Sense or not. That will help narrow it down by 50%
Beyond that, just try a bunch that have healthy threads and update frequency, and you can't go wrong.
Newt's XXX RLS1 is the best ROM I've run to date. Sense 4 is sick, and I haven't found one thing that doesn't work yet (besides the stupid data arrows, but who REALLY needs those anyway?) It's just too bad you can't get support in the thread for it here anymore, but he's easy to find if you know where to look.....
Guys, I've lost touch with this thread since I've gone to the Note II on Verizon. I am wanting to give my brother my old Note since he has AT&T and the phone is just sitting unused, but I left my previous Note being a mess with force closes and all and he is not good with technology so I want the most stable ROM for him that I can overclock too. Any recommendations on ROM's and Kernels? I would like Jelly Bean if possible. Suggestions would be appreciated and then I'll check them out. Thanks.
Just return it to stock.

No, but it does mean that if you ask the question of 10 people, you'll get 10 different answers back. Some people will flash a new ROM, not have a reboot in 24 hours, and consider that "stable". It doesn't sound like the OP's brother will care about a rooted phone or running custom ROMs, so reverting it back to stock will probably be best for him.
Agreed.....
Stock phone would likely be best in this application...g
BUMP.
I haven't had time but am on a week long vacation and really want to do this now. Stock is not really the answer I want. I would like to know the most stable ROM made that keeps all the Samsung apps and S Pen usability, but even more than that is running Jelly Bean. Can anyone point me to which posts to look at and decide, or just give me their opinion on them if they use them. And what is the best kernel for that, cause I would like to overclock. I will start looking myself, but would love to hear some opinions, not just "stick to stock". I have ran many, many ROMs over the years that were pretty stable without being stock. I am just out of touch with the Note 1 as I have had the Note 2 for awhile and hadn't done anything to my Note 1 in quite some time. I believe I was running Paranoid Android (charging it now) but would prefer a closer to stock based ROM. Thanks. I would rather have Jelly Bean over the Samsung apps and S Pen apps, so the most stable or Jelly Bean ROMs would be good to know.

I cant offer you a JB stock build for our note 1, because that build does not exist.
Since kernel source for JB has not been released, we are forced to use the JB framework blobs, combined with a modified ICS kernel.
This leaves us a broken rom, that has many working features, and is for the most part stable. But like all custom builds, leaves us with some bugs.
The "leave it stock" statement is not meant to be offensive. It simply is the truth at this point, as we have no official, "stable" JB builds. Although this site does offer many high quality JB variant builds. And no one person can tell you the best one, as our usage habits differ so greatly. You simply need to read the threads, and base your opinion on the user reports from the threads.
It is our hope that Samsung will release an update for us, and open the door on some amazing JB work. but until that happens, we will have bugs, and broken functionality.
I use a very nice ICS build on occasion, as I feel that it offers the best performance, balanced with a feature rich rom.
FlappJaxxx UCLF6 build #12 is my top pick at the moment.
Unfortunately, the rules prevent my linking the rom directly for you, as the developer is no longer on XDA. but his works can be found at rootdev.org in it's complete form. and I for one feel that until we see an official update, no better ICS/ JB variant work can be found than his.
and I'm sure that if/when the update comes, the same will be said for his quality of builds in the JB framework and beyond.
He has true talent for building outstanding code. And you are well served using his wares. I hold much respect for Flappjaxxx, despite his leaving XDA. And I'm greatful to have his work at my disposal.
Good luck in your search, and happy flashing.....g

Yes, but the 4.1.2 build. That one is 4.2.2 and while it is pretty stable I still find the 4.1.2 version to be a bit more solid. There's a link to older builds in that thread I believe.
I am not an expert. I know very little about these ROMs.
I AM A USER.
I always look for a stable but capable, and fast ROM. I love some of the freedoms these flashes give to me, and some of the "flow" of using my phone is better when stupid stuff is turned off and productive stuff is turned on and preinstalled.
Everyone is different and that is why many EXPERTS here will suggest trying each one.
For me, I do NOT like flashing. I do it when I feel there is a reasonable step forward or I hit issues and support dwindles for my current ROM.
All that said... Today...
I am pretty happy with flapp jaxxx and jellybeer.
Good luck. Hope this helps! Just my simple perspective... From a USER.
