I'm no developer obviously but what is it so hard to get rid of sense without having issues? It seems like every senseless rom has some kind of bug. I just heard that sense makes the phone slower. What's the fastest sense rom out?

Depends on the version of android you want. Ice cream sandwich or gingerbread

Just out of curiosity, who told you Sense was slow? Sense is not slow. You've been given incorrect info regarding Sense.
That's true. I'm running an ics Rom by nilsp. Ics sense version 4.2. Seems really good overall.
I just have to fix the sd card mounting error.

Sense is slow and laggy on Gingerbread. But on ICS its smooth because of Hardware Acceleration. CleanROM DE is pretty much bug-free though. And super-smooth check it out

I think sense 3.6 is slowish. Sense 4 is amazing. Finally like sense again.

I want to try the Sense 4.x ROMs, but I want data arrows. No arrows, no flash.
Is there a fix out for that by any chance?

i can mod it so you see the arrows, they wont work but you can at least see them.
besides the arrows sense 4.0 made me love sense again.
Heh, no thanks on arrows that don't do anything. My connection is spotty (Kansas City, MO) and I need the arrows so I know if I actually have data. A lot of times, I'll be connected and won't get any traffic.
I thought maybe it was the phone, but I'm on my 3rd Rezound at this point.
okay, what's the snappiest sense rom?
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using XDA
One of the cleanrom variants or newts on xxx
Clean rom developer edition is great and no sense. No bugs either.
okay thanks, how come no one ever mentions bamf senseless? Is it not as good as DE for some reason?

CleanROM only has one bug with the quick brightness not sticking. Which is easily bypassed. Bamf has many more problems.

I feel like ics is amazing and you're missing out on alot! Don't flash the firmware and you shouldn't have an issue with roaming, as far as I know. ICS has brought alot of nice improvements. I say flash it and just give it a try for yourself man.
I went from mean to clean and I love the Ics and sense 3.6 combination. Battery life is definitely better

Definitely an improvement, battery life seems to be better than almost any GB rom I had (aside from CM7 & og Anthrax RLS9). It's nice to have working ICS roms with WiMax though!
All I'm gonna say is I can never go back to Gingerbread!

I have yet to mess around with the official ICS ROM due to my carrier not providing it yet. But from what I have seen it looks awesome and can't wait to test it out. I am currently playing with the ICS NonSense RC1 ROM by VladBelsky, I love the stock look and feel of ICS.
like ics. dislike sense 3.6. wish we had 4.0
I think people tend to exaggerate about how much better it is.
It's a definite improvement, but, if it had the same menus/look as GB.. You wouldn't really notice much difference. It's still worth using tho
Sent from my HTC EVO 3D using xda premium
It breathed new life into the Evo 3d. I still dislike sense but it will be enough to hold me over until the next Nexus.
Aside from my personal dislike of sense it does run great though. I wish they didn't ugly up the notification bar and change around the settings but for the most part sense doesn't detract from the ICS experience. Battery life is exceptional and it seems to perform better at stock clock speeds than any other rom I have used @ 1.7ghz.
I roamed a bit yesterday and don't seem to get data while I'm roaming but that could be an issue on my part or area.

I don't know about you but I was using newts sense 4 amazing and almost fully working in beta state...flashed a 3.6 and while it seemed a little faster its horrible compared to 4.. then I flashed back to gb and I already hate it...doesn't seem as smooth and seems "clunky" IMO

It seems to be much smoother, especially the browser. No reason to not upgrade really, except for the fact that most Rome are missing some minor features.

If you've flashed the virgin mobile firmware, thats why.
i haven't had much of an enjoyable experience so far, i don't really have signal issues unless you include occasional LoS but no notice in decrease of signal strength.
I'm mostly disappointed with the mobile network settings missing that would allow me to enable data roaming, i have flashed Chubbzlou's Booster but that begins to FC and have performance issues after a day or 2 with the annoyance of Bluetooth issues.
not to trash one ROM, they all so far have the same issues and i can't find one to make my daily.
i am looking forward to sense 3.6 as it looks really good and has some great features.
i will politely and contently await the sprint leak or the official release, hopefully the firmware release included with the sprint leak will fix my "virgin mobile" banner

Sent from my ADR6425LVW using xda premium
I'm a little partial to CounterShrike myself, but maybe I'm not the most objective person. Apophis and I have spent a lot of time packing as many features, enhancements, and bugfixes into as we can. It's not as feature packed as AOKP, but it's steps above stock CM9, and I haven't had any stability issues with it.
I have to agree with shrike. I've been running project rachel (1.2) since it came out and it has just the right amount of customization options while still keeping it pretty stock AOSP. I've had no random reboots and it actually holds mobile data much longer until an airplane toggle is needed than other aosp/aokps I tried.
I just haven't gotten around to updating to 2.0 as there aren't many imperative updates (afaik)

AOKP has stability issues on this phone. I've never gotten it to run well. Any of the CM9 based builds should be much more stable. You'll lose some customization options, but the stability is worth it to me.
I'm tempted to go to stock rooted.. everything works.. I can't get video to work on joelz viperrom and countershrike has some underlying issues I don't like

What issues are you having? I've squashed all the bugs I know about, except the ones that are in AOSP in general.

I've been using Neo's Rage for a while without any signal issues, the native tether works, and its fast. I also dislike Sense and this has been my favorite alternative so far.
There has been talk of an update before the weekend also, with updated Linaro
Yep, definitely Ineff Deus. It's been my daily driver for months. I've tried flashing other ROMs and have come back to it every time within a day.

You bought the wrong phone
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using Tapatalk 2
Well honestly, either way you go, senseless or AOSP, your gonna run into some bugs. This is because AOSP is only about 92% stable. The problems in a Sense based rom that has been desensed may be an issue. I can't give you a list of bugs you would see, but basically they would be there. When a rom is desensed, some key elements of the rom are removed. When these things get removed bugs appear. Your not gonna find a perfect rom, but if you can deal with a couple bugs here and there, then I am positive you will find plenty of good roms on the forums.
since when does aosp have reception problems.
SlimKANG 2.1 for my favorite "senseless." I bounce between that and EclipticRez, but SK 2.1 has no issues that are not by design that I notice.
Awesome, then I know what to try and what to look for. My 5th droid 3 died and the 12mo warranty was up. I had to buy another phone and HTC makes solid phones and this had great specs. This phone was $200 and in excellent condition and couldn't pass it up. I figured I'd just flash aosp, but the phone came with cm9 and data was in and out never stable, dropped calls, and signal sucked. Flashed latest original RUU and now I want to S-OFF and go sensless.
Thanks for your advice. Greatly appreciated.

Adrenaline 2.0. Neo is a fantastic dev, and a great guy. He answers questions about his work no matter how basic, and will help you with any problems. Also, Dragonstalker's Rezone Redux is an awesome Senseless rom. To be honest, there isn't a single bad senseless rom out there. The dev community here has those whipped.
Make sure that you aren't using the wrong network settings with CM9, most of the people with data issues that I helped straighten out, actually caused their data issues without realizing it. The AOSP network settings are slightly different from what you would use on sense. If I remember correctly it's the second and fourth options that you use. Somebody running AOSP will need to confirm that though.

+ post count.
Some are sense 3.6 and some are sense 4
Try them all and you will find one you like
i.m.o=viperrez. i tried others and i seem to keep coming back to this one.its based off of 4.0.4 and its sense 4

Having tried both viperrez and eclipticrez, I stick with ecliptic. I have had 0 issues with it and I do mean 0. Not only that but it still receives updates. It's android 4.0.3 with sense 4.0. Flash it....u won't be disappointed.

Viperrez and ecliptic rez have been my two favorites. Ecliptic is my current Rom.. Smooth and stable haven't had a problem yet. Decent battery life too. Viperrez was nice but with my experience, the battery drained too fast and had some minor problems. Loved the tweaks though. It's fun playing around with different ROMs but if you want a steady reliable and a well rounded ROM....Ecliptic is the way to go

Newt's Sense 4.1 ROM had lots of issues. Would not recommend considering it dropped data constantly, had issues with HtcDm force closing constantly, and only had 3G support for some reason.
Ineffabilis is essentially de-bloated stock with some "tweaks" but worked perfectly for me (HSPA data and calls/texts) when I needed a global rom overseas.
Try em out and see. I'm partial to AOSP roms.

Tried Newt , NOS and Hatka.
Newt is most feature rich,.
NOS seems to be the most fluid, fastest and probably most compatible.
Hatka has some tweaks (battery mods, built in toggles) and the one sense 5 Rom i keep as a backup.
They are all nearly clones of each other though. They are all about blink feed which is the nicest of all the feeders like Flipboard and feedly. I do miss it sometimes as it is the best newsfeed aggregator out there by a long shot.
I had problems with newt's rom. now on hatka supreme and it's amazing.

lol. thought the M7 was Newt. I meant the digital dream rom.
I had problems installing Hatka supreme at first because of all the options in Aroma. I like to de-sense a little bit and remove apps that that I will never use, The problem is that I kept getting weird FCs and other odd behavior until I just did a straight install of everything. Since then running smooth. nos seemed to burn too much battery for me too.
Only bad thing about new NOS is battery life
Is there a way to customize the dock icons on Sense5?
