What is the smoothest sense 3.0 rom?
And when i say smooth i mean no lag, no stutter, no glitches, no nothing, just a smooth, as you would have liked it rom.
Some ppl say rom's are smooth and i find them to be laggy, for instance (no offence Lee) Leedroid's rom is laggy, but everything works!
Need a rom which works and is smooth as butter, like coredroid on the sensation.
Quickest rom i've ever seen, frame rate is ridiculous.
Any suggestions???
Blackend is pretty smooth but I only switch between EVOZone and blackened, haven't tried anything outside of those two

infected eternity!!!
i was like you until i found out about this rom
sense 3.0
super smooth, just like sense 3.5 smooth
Thanks for replying, I should have said, GSM only, as i'm in the UK.
i'm loving warm rom right now. i'm on cdma, but they have a gsm version. hasn't been updated in a while, but latest nightly is amazing.

i should probably try out eternity though.... so hard to theme but i hear its great
Hmmm, Eternity 3.0 isnt compatible with GSM? I know the 3.5 one is.

Moving to Q&A
I too would very much like a smooth 3.0 ROM. Obv would prefer sense 3.5 but I find there are too many bugs. Unfortunately I'm on gsm so there are not much options at the mo. Starting to wish I got a sensation (even with the lack of 1gb RAM)

Warm TwoPointThree might be your best bet. It is also pretty smooth, but not quite as good as Eternity. You can however remove some of the 3D effect on the Rosie and make it just 2D and that makes it more smooth, the option to do that is in Warm Tweaks. Eternity also has the same thing in the same place called Eternity Tweaks.
I have the same problem looking for a smooth and stable GSM rom...and all sense 3.5 seem to have something not working.
Isn't the GSM version of InfectedROM Eternity a nightly sense 3.5 build? I tried it 2 days ago, battery went from 95% to 13% in 4-5 hours of stand by...and it wasn't system tunners fault.

The lack of ram isn't all that much in all honesty, 768MB is more than enough for the rom's that we're running.
Plus the amount of attention the sensation gets is staggering when you compare it to the 3vo, i too wish i would have got the XE, it's a stellar handset, at stock it's good, put ICS on it and it's blazing.
However, don't know the 3vo too much, if the right dev's pop over to this then i can see the evo being a beast, it's got the hardware, it's got 3d which not many phones can boast, it's also got a decent battery and nice screen too, plus i've dropped mine i dont' know how many times and it just bounces
ANYWAY, back to the rom, up until now, probably King Cobra is the best, although once i have all my apps installed and the rom has settled a bit, it's a bit clunky. Everything does work though, and it's themeable, which is always nice.
Wish we had coredroid man, crazy rom that on sense 3.

Yea i tried warm rom quite a while ago and i seem to remember getting fc's, can't remember exactly what for, i might check it out.
I miss sense 3 plus i've never played a 3d game on my phone.
Sense 4 is where it's at tho, such a nice interface.

It is a nightly yea, which means that older releases are sometimes better than the newer ones, tried a few, but documentation on whats been good and whats not involves sifting through the many pages which make up the thread, not a bad rom tho.
Best batter life i was getting was with Mikrunny 1.11, got nearly two days on med - low usage clocked @ 1.18Ghz, no need for any more as it's smooth, it's just ur missing features like 3d gaming and it's not got a theme besides Phikal's which isn't complete, still a good theme tho.
Does anyone have a certain rom set up a certain way that gives smooth scrolling and no stuttering throughout the phones usage? I understand in high performance situations but for day to day things it gets annoying.
I have tried pretty much every rom out there and none of them are as smooth as my girlfriends stock OTA incredible. What gives? For having an extra cpu and more ram so how does the phone struggle to be as smooth as an old phone like the first incredible?

This^ with AnthraX kernal underclocked to 1.2ghz and im still smooth. Setup a few profiles and my battery lasts for freakin ever!
Ineffabilis v1.3 for sure I tried every ICS rom and they all lack a smooth feeling!
I want to try a ROM with sense 4. I understand there are some small issues with ROMs running sense 4, such as bluetooth not working properly, or MMS. Can anyone advise about a sense 4 Rom they have used? what issues they have and if they can be used as a daily driver? I want to try the ROM with the least issues. Thanks.
Best thing to do is check the first post of each Sense 4.0 ROM. The Dev's list bugs they know of so users know what they are flashing.
Currently I am running RezRom S4 1.2 which is fairly stable. To my knowledge, this is the only Sense 4.0 ROM which has MMS working properly and is fairly quick. Bluetooth for streaming music works on all Sense 4.0 roms, however, using bluetooth for phone is not. If you absolutely need that function, Sense 4.0 roms are not for you.
To be honest, I think you should try them out and see which one you like. I run RezRom S4 as my daily so that could be a start for you.
I will stress that you read the OP's of each rom THOROUGHLY that way you are not disappointed when you boot up. You absolutely must exit the initial setup and disable the animations to avoid ghosting and serious lag.
Newts one xxx is pretty stable. Mms worked for me. Didn't try Bluetooth. All sense 4 roms have been kinda laggy for me though. Nils business ics is a great Rom as well with sense 3.6

Yeah all the Sense 4.0 ROMs are pretty stable and most things work except Bluetooth calls and maybe a couple small things depending on the ROM you get. Only issue is they lag a bit, especially when switching home screens. Seems like maybe we don't have full h/w acceleration yet on thes ROMs but I'm no expert.
If I HAD to go with a ROM I'd pick |||bored|||'s since I've had the most luck with it, but I generally go back to ICS with Sense 3.6 since more things are working and they run smoother. Sense 4.0 is definitely fun to play with though.
i have a valid question for you guys. every ice cream rom ive tried has given me significant lag/choppiness and heats up my rezound. now today i played with both a gnexus at verizon and a htc one x at at&t and it was smooth as butter. is our issues because of no ota or kernel source? just curious as to what you guys think?
thanks!

Both I would take a very educated guess in saying. no OTA means it is a work in progress and no kernel source means that the kernels aren't really tweaked out for the ROMs they are running....
my guess is sense bogs us down a good bit. also ics is coded for the gnex.
Without kernel source, we're stuck with what the leak has. From what I've read, that is not good.
I'm sticking with GB until we have source...GB flies for me!

Yeah, Sense 3.5/.6 are steaming piles of laggy crap, but 4.0 seems really nice.
I have official ics on my unrooted galaxy tab 2. It has the touchwiz overlay but is still superfast. I was worried too that ICS was slow until I got this. I think the omap processor is a better performer on average than a qualcomm too, but not by much.
If you are running the gb kernel and firmware it is hit or miss with ics roms for the rezound. GB will always be faster if running gb firmware and kernel. I hope that the ics kernel is fixed when we get the official ics update and that sense doesnt bog things down. We really need htc to release kernel source and firmware in order to have a solid base for ics roms imo. I love Rez Rom Sense 3.6 ICS though, runs pretty good even on old firmware.

GB flies for me too, even running a sense ROM.
I always chuckle when people post how "slow and laggy" sense is.
I get absolutely zero lag running sense 3.5 and figure those posters are probably clueless on how to correctly set up their system.......

Actually for me all of the sense 4.0 ports were super laggy. I can say gb seems more fluid but the battery life still stinks on my rezound. That one x is really a nice device but im thinking this may be my last htc. I havent had good luck with the brand.
Thanks for the responses guys.
ICS doesn't lag for me ever, but I dig the Senseless roms for the looks, and indeed, Sense 4.0 isn't optimized for us yet.

when i went from a sense rom to an aosp rom on my inc2 i noticed a big difference in speed. sense definitely affects things.
ics runs great for me on 3.5/3.6 and on 4.0 its great as well... i have no problems at all
I don't get all these people who have all the battery and heating problems. I think it is user error. I have better battery and better signal since I upgraded to ICS CleanROM.

Agreed, if there were such a range in hardware that some overheated while others were great, I'd expect that HTC's quality control was so bad that half the units that were produced wouldn't even power up. Always get a kick out reading about someone who has warrantied a couple of phones then in the next breath says "I'm running "xyz" kernel and OC'd...
Anyway, would you mind sharing your setup Gray? It might help others to know what a working ICS setup is. What Kernel, Radios and other specifics are you running.
What I find is interesting is that with my first rezound I had a horrible experience when I flashed the ICS leak. Extreme overheating, even worse battery life, but it was nothing that I could have done. It was the radios on some hardware that cause this issue. I sent it back, got another, and reran the leak. Haven't looked back since. It's also worth noting that I have a way better experience with ICS then I did with GB. GB scrolling was always choppy and just overall sluggish. ICS fixed all that along with giving me a battery life ranging from 11-17 hours depending on usage.

I also have a better user experience, as in runs faster, smoother, and less lag along with better battery life on ice cream sandwich than I did on gingerbread. I think a lot of it has to do with how it's set up and configured. And I understand that some people have genuine hardware problems but it seems that it's causing a lot of people to quickly attribute their issues to hardware and not spend the time to chase down the problem and solve it. Regardless another leaked kernel or an official OTA base will definitely be welcomed and help this beast run even better.

I don't get any "lag" persay with any Rom I've used. What drives me a little nuts is the stuttery and choppy scrolling in a LOT of apps I use daily. The text and the pictures chop, even though the scrolling motion is smooth. Facebook, zynga apps, internet (if its more than text) messaging app, contacts, reddit news... There are some that don't stutter though. Twicca, tapatalk, menu scrolling, root explorer...

That annoyed me about GB (stock and CleanROM 1.7.5). Even on ICS, Facebook scrolling is choppy, unless you enable Force GPU rendering. Running ICS with Force GPU rendering is an incredibly smooth experience, and I haven't run into any bugs. I'm surprised it's not enabled by default in all ROMs.
I think that people having a better experience on a hacked(nicely mind you), sense 4.0 rom must have set up Gingerbread wrong. See how easy it is to make a statement like that. I have experienced both ics, and gb, and have always had a smoother experience on gb. I hated how ics scrolling in the browser, xda app, tapatalk, and others was jittery at best. I love some of the elements of ics, but the trade off was too much for me. My phone ran about 11 degrees different between ics, and gb. Also, if you go back to around Christmas, overheating was an issue then. On stock. So apparently, this phone can have heat issues. Don't get me wrong, I love this phone, and I appreciate all the work that goes into making roms. I have been following these developers for quite a while. They are all really good. We are blessed to have them.

I haven't been up to date with the sense roms and have been using clean rom de for the past 2 months. I'm sick and tired of nova launcher/apex launcher/trebuchet launcher/ being extremely choppy on our phone so I'm going to convert to sense.
Sense 4 looks pretty nice but I'm not sure which one is more stable at the moment, sense 3.6 or sense 4? I'd really like to get on sense 4 if possible and which rom would you guys recommend for the most stability + speed?
Newts RC 3 one xxx is stable enough for me to use as my DD except for one thing: HDMI out has never worked with that ROM and that's a deal breaker for me.
Everything else works perfectly.
HDMI out and Visual Voice Mail don't work on the Sense 4 roms.
I have used both Newt's one xxx rom and bored's RezRom S4 rom, and I still prefer bored's a lot more.

What is it you prefer about RezRom S4 rom??
3.6 roms are 10x more stable, but 4.0 roms are still very usable.
I'm using newts xxx 3.12 (or 3.15?) s4 rom, and everything I've tried to use works just fine, only thing I see is that the app drawer lags when launched but thats it

I love these arbitrary comments. Given that my phone running Newts RLS 3.2.1 (and 3.1.2 before that) has NEVER crashed, has working everything (short of HDMI which i never use), and runs faster than 3.6 did before, i am not sure how 3.6 is "10x more stable"......
I'm running RezRom right now, it's been great only little problem I noticed is the lag when opening the app drawer but I can handle that no problems.
I do notice that RezRom has a some bloat in it, how's newts rom or joelz rom?
