Hey guys, I am having some issues. I want to flash a CM7 ROM but I can't figure out which is the most stable release? It looks like it will be CM7 but not CM 7.1. But which is the most stable? Z's? I have an unlocked bootloader and I am looking for something stable with good battery life. Thanks guys!
ZMOD-VMOD V3 for me

I second that, ThJap's mod has better batter life but Z's is the most stable
I tried the latest CM, fxp043 and ANYTHING I did I got "android.process.acore" crashing - anything, switch home screens, it crashes, open the menu, it crashes, put the phone to lock, it crashes. So avoid that imo, although it seems like most people don't have that problem so I don't know what I did wrong ...
I also tried Wolf v7 beta 3, for about 10 mins - but it wouldn't connect to facebook (it would crash)
ATM I have found the most stable version is stock

Hi chaps,
i downloaded the CM7 ROM and Baseband from Jerpelea's thread. however, its not stable as it was work in progress...lots of things not working and sends my phone into reboot all the time when i try access them.
That thread has grown into over 600 posts, who has CM7 working well on their x10? i want to know what updated files were downloaded and flashed to get it working well and stable.
Please guys
I had jerpelea's CM7 ROM, but camera made me switch to Wolfbreak's one. I'm not sure about how is it working now, but in RC4 with stock kernel almost everything was working fine, except the camera.
It's clearly not as stable or fast as the ROM I handle now, but I had it as a daily ROM without many problems.

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
Do all Custom ROMS for all the positive features they may bring always result in less stabililty than a Stock ROM?
I imagine CM7 to be the best....seeing as he works for Samsung also. I certainly found it the best when I had the I9000/Galaxy. However looking at the CyanogenMod forum there are plenty of people raising issues with the builds (including 'stable' builds).
I really enjoy trying different ROMS usually but I am deliberately sticking with a rooted stock at the moment - and it has never froze, crashed or rebooted itself yet! I do miss fiddling with my phone though!
Thoughts/opinions appreciated.
Thanks
criskelo 31 + latest siayh - no problemo )))
Yes.
(10 char)
If you want a stable rom, then use the one in my sig. Oxygen is amongst the most stable roms that are out here. It's almost bugfree, because the creater of the rom, Adam G is a perfectionist.
You have no touchwhizz, just stock android that works. If you are looking for a shiny rom, then this one is not for you. If you want a stable rom and an almost bug free rom, then this one is for you.
ps you won't find this rom on xda, because he does not want that anymore.
Samsung Galaxy SII
try this combination...
*CheckROM Revolution HD v3.1.1 (fast and lite)
*Speedmod-kernel-s2-k2-18-test8-CWM.zip (best battery life)

Is that rom based on CM?

I don't know if you can say that. It has some coding from CM, drivers etc. But it is supposed to be a stock android rom, the way google intended it, with (almost) no CM stuff.

It depends really with locked bootloader I would go with xperia x10s or feralabs and donut HD is very stable! But if you plan on unlocking your bootloader the list goes on! I would recommend oodies miui rom
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1295089
In fact this can be installed on locked bl and finally theres cyanogen mod by fxp but its not fully working yet video camera doesn't record in HD and very very laggy

I was been on Dixperia 7 avenger for a while until I went to FXP115 CM7.2.0.
Dixperia 7 is a smooth, fast, stable and good looking version of the stock factory rom.
I wouldnt give CM7 to my Mum coz it has heaps of very customisable settings under the the hood and if She started poking around in there things could get ugly pretty quickly
Choices for my Mum would be...
Dixperia 7 avenger
T.E.A.M Transparent
DonutHD2.2

Imo most stable is currently DiXperia 7 (which i'm using right now), it's clean very fast, include alot of xperia S apps, simple theme etc.. And DonutHD is also very nice, it's bugfree, fast, & ICS themed.
Quick question about Dixperia 7... Am correct in assuming you have to download and install a LOT op different stuff? I saw that there is the rom, and then after that you have to install some kind of facebook, a browser, an app for this, an app for that... Isn't that a lot of extra work? Or is there a cersion where all of that stuff is already included in the Rom? In my case, the extra installing would prevent me from using the Rom as it seems like a lot more wok then other Roms that are already complete? Or am I mistaking?
My ROM has additional downloads in single addons/files, cause not all people using the same stuff, so after install my ROM, you just apply those files you need - it makes you more being yourself, cause you don't need delete tons of non-using apps. Of course decision depends of you - I can't tell you which ROM is the best, cause I'm not flashoholic, and I am Dev - every Dev prompting for his system, am I right ? Cheers.

Haha, ok, so the Rom will work great as is? Everything else is just extra stuff you MIGHT use but is not necessary?
Trust me I am no flashaholic, If I do this I just want to do it once and have a good working smooth fast phone
I mean the video playback after recording is laggy not the rom sorry for the confusion

Hi all !
I have a problem.
I am under MIUI v4 Fr 2.8.17. But I have no lockscreen anymore !
Before I was under Fr MIUI GB 2.3.9 stable version, and my lockscreen was ok. when I wanted to unlock my phone, it appeared.
So I tried to restart on a ROM official XXKH3 GB samsung and reflash MIUI v4 version 2.8.17. No bootloop, no problem. But still no lockscreen.
I'm running out of idea.
Can you help me ?
Someone has already known about this problem ?
I'm know that there is an option to have no lockscreen at all, under settings->security. Other than that, I'm not certain. I doubt that the rom's default is to have the Lockscreen OFF, so it must be some sort of problem. Honestly, if what I meantioned doesn't work, I would just flash a MIUI V4 rom from a developer (not official MIUI V4) as they tend to be the official with more additional tweaks. WIUI is basically official MIUI V4 but it doesn't suck. It's smoother, and faster. Check it out
