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
I'm using Franco's Kernel v15 + ZRAM with Mik's CM7 6.5.2. At first it was a dream, 1352 points on quadrant and 58.5fps on neocore @480/729Mhz Smartass. Everything running smooth and really fast.
About 6 hours of intense testing some apps (many, in fact) started crashing for no reason. Mostly google apps like Calendar and even Market. But also some widgets and running services.
I reflashed everything, even re-formatted (and re-partitioned) my sdcard and everything was fine again but after a reboot to install google applications (gapps-gb-20110325-signed.zip) the crashes started again. And I was running w/o overclocking at this time.
Searching for some info on the issue I saw a post stating that v15 kernel is for FROYO only so it's not compatible with CM7 but Franco always said that his Kernel was compatible with CM7 and there's no such info coming from Franco himself so I want to be sure of it before flashing a Froyo ROM.
Any thoughts on this issue? Any help is appreciated.
Edit:
Maybe it's worth noting that my phone is a O1 p500h, apart from the 3.2mp camera I don't really know if there's other differences in hardware that may cause problems.
That h is ur problem I think
I really hope not. I've been using Franco Kernel + CM7 for many versions and never had any problems with it (well, aside CM7's known bugs).
I'm from Brazil and CM7 is the only ROM I know that has Brazilian Portuguese (pt-BR) language support. All other ROMs I tried are strictly european and only have support for Portugal's Portuguese (pt-PT), which is kinda different and "sounds" quite annoying at some times.
And while I feel quite confortable using english, it's not the same thing as your mother tongue.
Its weird some users reported this kind of stuff.
I think its safer to use dookmatt kernel than franco kernel
Could a theme cause this kind of instability? I just remembered that on both times the crashes started I was experimenting with a XperiaArc theme for CM7.
Are you using app2sd or data2sd? These may cause such conflicts at time.

Nope, but I have an Ext4 partition on my SD-Card so I get more "internal" memory for installing apps.
You need to use some external app/hack for what you have described, so, essentially the answer is yes, not no

The answer remains "no", I'm not using app2sd nor data2sd.
You missed the point. Whatever are you using for this can cause the instability. Apparently top secret stuff, so... go help yourself I guess.

I am facing certain problems like you after flashing devoid.franco+kernel V15+ ZRAM.
I had following issues for the past 15 days.
1. changed the stock ROM to devoid Franco + V14
I agree the performance of the phone increased. Did OC using Set CPU. Score over the Quadrant was never over 650, not an issue with this as long as i can feel the diff in the performance.
One major change i saw was - as you all know the SMSes get threaded with a particular contact (both recd and sent msgs.). In my case if i receive sms from TD-I-mint, the message was shown as received from TD-Reylon, similar with all the SMSes, the actual sender was never possible to know when you see the list of msgs. Only after you open the msgs then you could find out the sender.
this is continuing still with Kernel 15.
2. same situation after flashing V14.1, V14.2, V14.2.2.
3. with Kernel V 15 + devoid.francoROM with little change. I wiped everything, SD was partitioned and upgraded to EXT 4. Flashed new ROM (05-06-2011), rebooted, flashed Kernel V15, rebooted, flashed ZRAM, rebooted, but phone never came to life, had to remove the battery and reboot, same result. Then wiped cache and dev cache, then flashed ZRAM, the phone was breathing.
Then tried to flash the system apps downloaded from first post of http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1049518&page=1, the phone lost its life and had to re-do the whole process of flashing ROM....
With update of ROM + Kernel V15, i had to re-do the whole process for 5-6 times. I never had this problem with older kernels or flashing custom ROM.
One major issue is - msgs and other apps like TB (list of backups) some times display vertically. Today for the first time the SMS app was force closed.
Any-body facing issues like this or issues and you have the solution , I request you to post here.
I guess the best solution for me is to use the stock ROM with franco.kernel. This way I maintain my country's language (and, most important, GPS configuration) and still get some nice tweaks from Franco's.
By reading the comments on v15 kernel, it seems wise to wait for a new version before installing it. There are several users experiencing heavy battery drain. Or maybe install v14.2, but I don't have it anymore.
So, is it safe to use franco.kernel v14-v15 with LG stock ROM (mine came with v10A, android 2.2.1)? Or does it have any compatibility issues?
Thanks for your replies.
touch fix
hi, Does this kernel has the touch fix like Mik_os' kernel?

Yes it does. Am running stock 2.2.2 with Franco's kernel v15 and its smooth as butter.
Running 2.2.1 stock ROM + franco.kernel v15 for about 10 hours now, so far no significant change on battery use.
But I miss mik's ROM performance... FPS on neocore dropped from 57fps to 36.5fps. And my old score on quadrant was 1350 and now is 615.
Is there any improvements I can install on my stock ROM? JIT? HW accel? I really could use some more performance.

Hello,
Yesterday I installed Wolf's package. Now I redid the whole thing with the new V3.5
My question:
Are speedfixes and tweaks included in the Wolf_GB_2.3_TW_V3.5.zip?
My problems:
-Neocore only gives me 30.7 fps
-Quadrant only gives my 1100 points
And I'm pretty sure I installed the package correctly.

Yes but as I am a new member, I can't post in his thread because it is very likely that the question's answer is already in his thread.
OT: I wiped dalvik cache as someone mentionned in his thread, but that didn't help.
EDIT: Useless post again I think, after rebooting got 2200 points so it's fine
hey im a newbee here , and please don't get angry with me asking this

I know right! I'm amazed with it
I would like to know about battery life, since everytime I switch stock to any custom firmware I get more speed but verry little battery life (I have tried freex10, cm6, cm7, miui, tripnmiui).
How's your battery life with that rom, if I may ask?

Im currently on the first WB and speedfix 008v4.
Do I need to completely reflash to get to 3.5, and then update to 3.6?
Whats the difference between all the different ROMS? Found like 6 on XDA? Which one is the most popular, WB?

All roms have a bug, but I like GingerDX
I'm currently using GingerDX (v006 w/ hotfixes). It works great for the most part, it's much more stable than the froyo rom I was previously using, and seems to be much faster as well.
Hard to say "best" about any rom... the question really would be.. what rom is best *for you*
I'm currently using GingerDX too, v007.
"For me", it's the Best ROM.
Sonybread is the main Paul's ROM.
Sorry my very bad english.
I'm using GingerDX 007 too and for me, among the 3 most relevantat gingerbread based roms, is the most stable and the one which better responds; but, any patch or hotfix to solve the notification bar problem? Once it has been extended the only way to put it back is by pressing the back button; and a last question: does the keyboard light work properly for you? is instaled D4 app? I can't see it.
And finally, if you can help me... anyone has experienced that when installed any gingerbread rom, even wiping cache and Dalvik still the previously installed apps?
I thing I'm the only one...
Thanks!!
another vote for gingerdx. the fastest rom i've used so far (i've tried almost all of them). battery life is great as well.

not true. you just have to find the right spot. when extended, try dragging the bar back up by placing your finger just slightly above the three notches in the bar. it's not perfect, but it works.

try this...when in cwm, go to mounts and storage and format cache, data, and system. also, wipe dalvik cache, wipe data/factory reset, and wipe cache partition. see if that works. works for me
My SD Card has a EXT partition for Link2SD from 2.1 Stock rom; maybe...?!
GingerDX rules
One more vote to gingerDx, the best one.
+1 for GingerDX
Have only tried gintonic.se by slade so far. It is the first time I am running a custom rom, I can not believe my eyes, all is looking so nice and works so well. Thanks XDA! (and slade in particular Has anyone who is voting for gingerdx tried gintonic.se as well? Now that I know how easy it is to flash a rom I might try another one (gingerdx/Paul's CM7) just to compare them.
If I make a backup of my system in CWM will everything be exactly the same when I do a restore? I mean all the settings as well (not only apk's+data).
The best one for the Mini's, must be MiniCM7 by nAa.
Hey guys..
I bought a galaxy tab 2 two weks ago from a friend who also used it for just 2 weeks !
It worked fine but recently I face a problem with the battery !
The battery drains to 40% after playing fifa 14 for just 1 hours with 30% brightness !
I searched for a solution in this forum and I read a threat about battery calibration which said that I shall charge it to 100% shutdown for an hour , restart it and use it until you get 40% battery and shut it down for 5 hours etc...
Anyway I tried the calibration method but it doesn't help and probably the situation get worst because this morning I used it until battery drained to 80% then I resart it and I found that battery drained to 34% !
I find many calibration app in googleplay but I'm not sure if it will help me in my situation or not !
So would anyone please help me solve this problem ?
thanks previously ( sorry for my bad english )

Well, calibration apps and doing it manually [ie .messing with the .bin] won't work due to it not being rooted. But on that note, I don't think you would have any reason to calibrate it. To my knowledge only flashing ROMs and things of the sort can cause it to be out of calibration. [not 100% sure though] Normaly You would have to charge to 100%, then let it die, without any charging. Go from 100% to 0% then 0 back to 100% in one charge.
Hope ya get it right. If anything ask him if he still has the receipt if he got it new. Could possibly use the warranty.

Well, try a calibration app 1st. If that doesn't work I don't how to "fix" it. You could do things to reduce battery drain though. Lowering the CPU max frequency, a powersave governor, undervolting the CPU, keep brightness to a minimum are good ways.

It helps to a degree, but I'm thinking your problem is the battery itself. Was it treated badly? Like leaving plugged in for long periods of time or left in really hot cars.

First thing you should know, you don't havta say thank you all the time, just click the Thanks button, that's what it's for.
And I actually installed PAC ROM today. It's an awesome ROM with a lot of cool features...
As for RAM usage, I dont think that should be a problem. The ROM should be optimised for your device, so it won't use 700mb at rest.
Give it a try, if you find it's slow or laggy, I can suggest more ROMs. :good:
(<---Remember to Thank me if I helped)
I would use CM10.1.3 for battery life, as I used to get 1% lose overnight. (I use SlimKat now which may be not as good in the battery department, but for me the latest OS is essential, but that's just me.)

Here's what a senior member said :
"Borther. I would like to quote one thing first of all; all kitkat based ROMs are battery suckers. So you will not get good battery backup as you might have seen in 4.1.2 or 4.2.2. Xposed framework consumes lot of RAM,i prefer not to use it. PAC ROM is just like another KITKAT ROMs that provides loads of features but with an inefficient battery backup. You will see huge battery drain yourself. I did tried all Kitkat based ROMs. Even all kitkat based ROMs have shuttering/noise sounds while playing some games like Real-Racing 3 etc. I suggest to go with Stock ROM 4.2.2 based on your region or cm 10.2 based ROMs(if available). Root it(if stock) and remove all the samsung bloatwares from it. Then you will not get any kind of battery drain or Lag while playing high-end games. But ultimately choice is all yours."
Thats why am still confused ! So what is the usage of ram at rest ?! You install pac rom kitkat or lower version ? What about battery , did it drain too fast ?!
And how did you install it please !? Am running sg tab 2 p3110 with SuperSU root and the latest version of philz as a custom recovery

I have a p3110 with latest philz recovery and dual booting pac 4.4.2 and Stock 4.2.2 with Next blackhawk kernel
OCed at 1.2GHz and both data and cache formated to F2FS and
1) I have no Lag on both the roms(primary and secondary)
2)1% loss of battery from night to day(9:30 pm to 5:26 am)
3)Play modern combat with no glitch
so i suggest you to do that!!

"Borther. I would like to quote one thing first of all; all kitkat based ROMs are battery suckers. So you will not get good battery backup as you might have seen in 4.1.2 or 4.2.2. Xposed framework consumes lot of RAM,i prefer not to use it. PAC ROM is just like another KITKAT ROMs that provides loads of features but with an inefficient battery backup. You will see huge battery drain yourself. I did tried all Kitkat based ROMs. Even all kitkat based ROMs have shuttering/noise sounds while playing some games like Real-Racing 3 etc. I suggest to go with Stock ROM 4.2.2 based on your region or cm 10.2 based ROMs(if available). Root it(if stock) and remove all the samsung bloatwares from it. Then you will not get any kind of battery drain or Lag while playing high-end games. But ultimately choice is all yours."
Thats why am still confused ! So what is the usage of ram at rest ?! You install pac rom kitkat or lower version ? What about battery , did it drain too fast ?!

I installed PAC(KitKat, latest nightly) on my GT-N7000(Galaxy Note) which has 778mb available RAM, and I get around 380mb used after clearing recents, and 355-ish after the phone has been at rest for some time. Mind you I haven't got too many apps installed which have background services, though. But I'd still say it's good RAM management.
But as for what you should do, I think you should take @iamashwin's advice...He knows what he's talking about. @lokesh.3440 suggested the stock option too, so you really should try it. :good:
Thank you all for support ing me ( pressing thank bottom is done ) but I decided to install cm 10.1.3 since it is recommended in many threads for battery life . Would anyone please explain to me what is a tabletUi patch ?

I'm not sure...I would think it's a patch to give you tablet UI (I know, I know...I'm a genius), but since you own a tablet itself...
I think it's some kinda fix for ROMs for tablet ported from phone ROMs...
