i feel it a bit laggy and i'm running out of internal space
so what ROM can make it super fast without using TasksPanel to kill things from time to time and has support to store applications on the memory card ?
arabic language addon with the above would be even better!
Thanks
Take a look at Cronos Droid Might be the fastest... even faster than Villain 6.0 and others jit enabled roms!

fastest but not 2.1
look at my Signature i think it's the fastest 2.1 rom
I find the Kimera 1.6 ROM with 650MHz overclock kernel makes my Hero fly, especially compared to 2.1 ROMs, such as Cronos 1.3.

Try Cronos Droid first! I tried bot yesterday...No way! Cronos is much faster!

do you think kimera 1.6 is faster than 1.8?
(I'm on 1.8 custom oc and never tried previous versions)

But why not publishing some numbers? Just quote the performance application you used and the publish your numbers.
Or, better, let's all agree on a single performance application.
Anything like "I think/feel/see xyz being the fastest" is simply an opinion, not a fact.
But some roms (especially those with jit enabled) scores really high in for exampel linpack. However they can still feel quite laggy in menu's etc.
imo kimera is the fastest right now. and i tried most of the custom roms.
So let's check JIT and non.JIT roms separately.
Kimera 1.8 running at 690mhz
Linpack: 3.0 mflops
aHero
aHero is not only very, VERY fast but also quite stable.
It is, by far, my favourite Vanilla ROM.

Sorry, I meant 1.8.
Cronos Droid Version 1.3
There isn't a faster Rom than kimera 1.8 and thats a fact.
SuperHero 1.1.0 gets over 5 Mflops in some cases with JIT and O/C.
It's the fastest 2.1 ROM AFAIK.
Right now I'd rather see more functions than speed. Most of the roms I've tried are stable, but missing one or more functions like MMS, Facebook sync, has green tint, etc etc.
Speed (as well as size) isn't everything.

The 1.5 ROMs are all pretty damn good in that respect.
Superhero 1.1 is the fastest with JIT and OC of 710 MHz i get 4.522 MFLOPS
I've tested several roms including CronosDroid, Villain 5.5 and SlideVillain. I've found that if you don't want to overclock, Legendroid seems to be the fastest. It just feels faster than the others. Whether this is reflected in benchmarks I don't know, I was not using linpack when I was exploring the different roms available.
I've been running the Ben10 Legendary kernel over Legendroid for the last 6hrs and it works well, but I haven't run other overclocked roms so I can't make a comparison there.
Overall though, Legendroid seems to have a speed about it that the others lack. Whether you're flicking through contacts, using the browser or jumping between homescreens, other roms feel laggy compared to it. Especially if you're a sense junky, the Legend ports have far more stuff built into them compared to other roms.
I currently have FroydVillain 1.7.2 rom on my phone.
I want to try something else because I had some problems with it.
Sometimes the phone is laggy, the messages load time is really slow, sometimes I don't get call and can't make them( ex: someone call me and it does the same thing as if my phone was closed), youtube problems and many other things.
Still there is some things I like about it, the quality of the camera(not really the interface), the easy user interface ( don't really like that half circle in other version), and other things.
So for a guy like me, who dosen't use his phone to play with it or you know, mess with the cpu (and other things like that) what other rom would you advise me.
(I would still like to have something with Android version 2.2.1 or newer, don't know the difference between each but I don't want to have less options or I don't know what)
Thanks.
+ The battery die fast.
In my opinion floyo 1.2 is the best 2.2 rom. no matter what i flash i always end up coming back to it.
I'm using Elelinux's latest Hero ROM, which is very smooth and stable so far. Also, since it's based on CM7 (Android 2.3), you can theme the hell out of it if you like.
Compared to the FroydVillains I've used in the past it maybe isn't quite as fast, but the difference is minimal. Although if you really need some speed, this 2.2-based rom is probably the way to go.
Try some of the latest Gingerbread ROMs. Very smooth and good battery life. If you absolutely must have Froyo, you're not going to find much that improves on what you've already got.

Cronos is another good Gingerbread ROM as well.
my choice:
2.1 : Sense rom for sure, elelinux's repack is good
2.2 : floyo 1.2, really great!
2.3 : elelinux's one, but with andriod 2.3.2 or before
going to try out the new android 2.3 with sense! hope i will stick on it after
you could try out the wildfire port of gingerbread with sense 2.1. its really cool and quite smooth!
Nothing better than nightly CyanogenMod 7.1! No more invisible menus and it is fast loading ^^

Heyy, was wondering what the fastest ROM going is atm. I'm really not too bothered about Sense or any other additions, I'm just looking for something that's speedy with as little lag as possible when opening apps from the launcher and when typing.
What're my options (I'm not too bothered what version)?
VR12 Android 2.1 with Sense.
try villainRom 13 its quite fast
Faster than something like CM6 or something based on CM6 like Elelinux?
I'm currently running FroydVillain 1.7 (Android 2.2) . It's stable and pretty fast.
I'm using VR13... Pretty nice.
A work colleague has come to me and asked about the "low memory" warning she keeps getting on her Hero. She is annoyed at having to delete apps all the time.
I'm thinking I want to root it for her, so she can have A2SD, but she is not at all technically inclined.
I need an ultra stable rom that I can flash and forget, I don't want her coming back to me about it.
Also the phone is a laggy POS on the standard 2.1 rom - any speed and battery life improvements would be welcomed!
Personally I would want an AOSP rom, but she used to Sense :-/
Recommendations, please?

VR 13 - overclock to maybe 600MHz for extra speed without sacrificing much battery life.
For the sense roms, it's best to stick with the android 2.1 roms like VR or Elelinux 2.1.
The AOSP 2.2 roms are also stable and both speedmachine, Floyo (1.2) or Froydvillain are really stable.

As long as she's a Sense lover you would like to take a look at this:

Gingerbread-Sense ported from Salsa to hero, being updated under serious work and becoming more stable everytime.
In case she gets convinced about the AOSP:

And if sticking to 2.1 with Sense is no problem, here's your deal with App2SD:

A lot of people suggest Cronos ROMs, but i really never gave that a shot, but i say you also look into that!
most of Elelinux's rom is the best. try it.
Is CM9 better than CM7 or are they about the same and what features does CM9 have that CM7 doesn't?

Well as forum surfing, found this. Yes, there is a difference. Cm9 is faster, has more features such as FFC unlock, a better overhauled ui, its faster, more user friendly in my opinion, and it has more customizable options in custom rom. If you want a good ROM, cm9 is good.

+1 for CM9, but it really depends what you're looking for. Granted, I've only tried AOKP ICS M6 so far, but I was on GB for a long time so I can feel the difference pretty well. If you're looking for bleeding edge and you don't mind a few hiccups and glitches every once in a while then go with CM9 based roms, but if you need rock solid stability then I'd say the CM7 roms are better suited. Don't forget that Jelly Bean (CM10) roms are already out and coming along quite nicely... I just can't upgrade myself until I get a new sd card.
