Which of there two ROMs should I get? - HTC Droid DNA

When moonshine is released, I will be custom romming my DNA. I've narrowed my choice down to CM10.1 and Hatka Supreme. I'm looking for some input on this to help me decide, so I know what to download when Moonshine is released.

I'd like to think I will pick one rom and stay on that one, but I know Im going to end up flashing all of them to find out which one I like

newtoroot's NOS m7

It's so easy to flash roms once you learn your way around, you would truly be limiting your experience and cutting yourself short if you don't try different roms. But I'm more than willing to talk someone through the process of narrowing things down, and based on your usage, likes and dislikes I can make some recommendations but I do it based on each users needs. Feel free to PM me if I can answer any questions or point you in the right direction.

The best advice is to make a backup of stock and then flash every ROM. I love revokt and soon pio will make a thread for carbon which I will try. These are both based on the cm build for the drivers (simplified explanation). I personally don't like sense but you might so try them all especially the aosp based!

I used to be an CM/AOKP fan, but after trying the Sense roms i was convinced they could do everything a CM/AOKP rom could do.
Boy I was wrong. As soon as I flashed Revolt rom the DNA beast was released. It was fast, snappy, and responsive. I've tried all of Pio's work and i settled on Carbon.
As people have said, try them all and see for yourself. You may come to a different conclusion than me and that is fine because the rom has to fit you, not what someone on the internets suggests.

CarbonROM in the Original Development forum. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2310695

Thanks for the responses and opinions. I'm fairly familiar with flashing on my Sammy Captivate, but not much experience with HTC and a locked bootloader. I think once I can get S-off it'll be to the point I can figure it out. I had used CM10.1 on the cappy and loved it, but I've heard sence 5 is amazing, so I'll probably just try a bunch of them.

Not trying to be ungrateful but..

The thunderbolt development has been on hold for months now... I run Liquid 3.2 with the imo kernel and it really is amazing. Like anyone else though I want more. Is it just me or is Team BAMF being selfish? How could they release a ROM without the RUU? I am grateful towards them but the truth is after being a sense fanboy for ever and finally giving AOSP a chance I will never look back. I tried the leak and it just brought back old angry memories. The lag to me is unbearable for a 1ghz 768 mb phone with ICS. I am sure the desensed version is better but here is my real question. Can AOSP developers start working on AOSP roms without the RUU? And do you guys think we will have any good AOSP roms untill the kernel source is released?
The only reason why I think I can be totally wrong right now is...if BAMF was being selfish why wouldn't they release the new radio? Unless they didn't update the radio I can't see a reason as to why they would hold back.
I just really can't wait for an official legit Liquid ICS AOSP rom with a new imo kernel build from source no de-compiling.
Is there anything about what I am saying that is wrong or doesn't make sense?

Not necessarily a noob but far from an expert... I posted this is q&a because I am looking for answers not to be judged..
They held back because it was a test build from April. I bet there isn't a new radio or hboot with the test as it was a test. I also would put money down that the reason the build is so laggy is because it is a test. If you're worried about the lag and want a functioning ics rom then I don't understand why you haven't flashed liquid ics. Everything works and I have used it as a dd since they got data working with it.

Yeah I did see that liquid rom... would you say that rom is anything as smooth as liquid 3.2 GB? Also I did not know that the leak was a a test build from April...that is crazy.
thanks for the info!
Where the heck did the Liquid ICS rom with working data go?
The build date in there is listed as April. I haven't tried liquid 3.2 as it was based on an old version of cm7 so I can't compare to that but it is smoother than any rom I've used on the tbolt to date.

i havent checked in the RUU if there is new radio(s) in it, but often times RUU's are not released at the request of the leaker
they're more identifiable than a rom made off of them, and the debug/tracking apks are removed from roms made from them
for the inc2 i was asked to remove the debug apps from the rom before releasing, and that would not be possible in the RUU
no one is entitled to anything either way....someone gave files to a certain individual/group in the hopes they would do whats best for the masses with it...if the leaker felt that everyone would benefit from releasing the RUU, it would have happened
there is nothing file wise that is a RUU and not a rom made from it that would benefit aosp anyway....all the bins/libs and associated files are the same
theres no *magic* in there....kernel source code is the most important thing in that area

Worse come to worse, do a Nandroid and flash a few ICS builds to try them out. If you don't like it restore back. I see some posts of people using Liquids ICS as a DD. Might be worth trying. I personally am waiting this weekend to see if anything else gets released just to get some kinks out due to the fact I use my phone for work and need the functionality of my phone. Liquids ICS is not based off of that leak from Teambamf and hopefully now that the leak has come out they may find it useful to perfect their Rom a bit more.
Again thanks to all the Devs for all the hard work they do!

Jumping ship from the RAZR M.

Well I cannot take the RAZR M any longer. I am trading for a Inc4g in the next few days. Just wanted to say hello and look forward to coming back to the Inc brand. Also can't wait to see what is cooking in development. Justin's viper was the goto ROM on my inc2.
Sent from my XT907 using xda premium
welcome back to the incredibles! I remember you from the inc2 threads. although the razor m looks nice and has pretty good specs, motos have always been weird about development. unfortunately there isn't too much going on here. viper is good if you don't mind ics bc htc hasn't put out any official JB for our phone yet. mdmower is doing an excellent job of maintaining CyanogenMod for our phone. although there isn't any ''official'' cyanogen his unofficial builds are definitely as close to official as you're going to get

Well good to know I made a good decision about the Razr M. That was the other device I was considering but matching it up spec-wise with the Inc4g..
just seemed like Inc4g was the better device for the form factor.
No other device seemed to compare and I decided not to wait for the Galaxy S4 Mini.

Don't get me wrong. The M is a great device. I just cannot get into Motorola. The UI lags like crazy. It is extremely difficult to transfer thing from internal to external memory. Also that gorilla glass screen scratched way to easy. My first day I scratched the screen while it was in my pocket.

Best Rom?

What is the best rom do you think and why?
1st of all your not supposed to ask for the best Rom on XDA by any ways as it is against the rules
2nd your supposed to experiment and find the one that suits you the best
3rd if your really disperate and can't find a Rom go ask a friend on fb or somewhere else just not here
There's not an answer. It's like asking on XDA "what's the best phone" . It all comes down to personal preferences and what you like and look for in a rom. For sense 5 I recommend spending about four or five days on NOS, then trying some of the other sense 5 roms. For AOSP Roma, there's a ton of them that are great and it's personal preference where to start with them. I run NOS M7, badseed customs tranquility and a rom that's posted on the team bamf forums on a fairly regular basis.

Bacardi makes a decent rum
It's definitely personal preference. This is my first root and I went with badseed all because of my experience with skins on my non rooted rezound. Mcluvin was the only one that has skins that were lag free. And as far as I know he is still with bad seed. But otherwise I was going to try a different one. BUT I couldn't be happier.

[Q] What can I do with my new HTC One?

I've been on the galaxy product line for my last two phones and have rooted them then installed CM on them straight away. Now that I have an HTC One, and it's still a fairly new device, I'm wondering what things I should/could do to it...
So far all I've done is unlock the bootloader, and I'm kinda waiting for ASOP Android to be released but are there any ROMs that are must haves or is there any reason to root it at this point?
Thanks for your help.

Yeah, I was expecting this type of reply. I've done a decent amount of searching in the HTC boards and this one. I'm asking the question for other people's opinions. But I guess you're right, I could go around the forums on my phone, so, that would be something to do on it although not what I'm looking for.

As a Samsung user for the past 3 years or so I've always used aosp Roma myself. I haven't even looked at a single aosp Rom for the one (won't until official comes out) my suggestion is use sense for a while. There's a thread over in international about some stuff the one can do. Check it out. I'd install a international Rom and play with it. (Arhd is great) If you flash an aosp Rom you'll lose beats and the great camera. Keep it (close to) stock for now and enjoy the new sense.

I wondered the same thing with mine. The next steps you could take if you wanted to: get s-off, get supercid, and pick a good Rom that you like. (for all intensive purporses the first two are negligible). I am currently on Android Revolution HD (arhd) and loving it. Fast and smooth with the 4.2.2 and good battery life. That's a good place to start.

[Q] Back to Sense from CM 10.2

Before i ask my question, I searched for the answer i promise. As you can see by my few posts, i usually find my answer by searching. I am stumped and i think it is because i am not sure i am searching the right string of words....
I recently got a replacement DNA. Unlocked and rooted like the last phone through adb with revone and then pushed recovery and SU. Took my first jump to a non-sense rom, and pulled a nightly for CM 10.2 . It works great, and I am enjoying the Rom, but my data drops in and out. I flashed and wiped and flashed again, and still had the same issues. I am going to go back to a sense Rom for a while until some things are hammered out....
My question.....
I remember reading something about issues going back from CM 10 to Sense because of the "0" folder. If i want to go back to completely stock sense or a sense rom, if memory serves me right, it IS NOT as easy as loading Rom and flashing because of "0" folder correct? I accidentally deleted my Nandroid. If i have to wipe the SD card or anything it's no big deal as the phone has nothing of importance on it. I am just looking for the right steps to get back to a sense rom.
Thanks for the help as always!
As long as you flash a 4.2 Sense rom, you should be just fine.

I've flashed back to sense a couple times. Just remember to pull the things you want off /sdcard/ before you wipe everything.
If you have ADB set up plug in your phone and type
adb pull /sdcard/ C:\<username \Desktop\
or wherever you want to keep it.
Thanks for the help guys! Either of you have a preference of good daily driver Roms? I am debating sense 5 from newt or the gpe from him. Looking for a solid daily driver

I'd recommend viper(sense 4+) for a daily driver. You may want to wait for official sense 5, because some of the sense 5 ROMs have been abandoned. It's supposed to come out this month.

Yeah i saw that it was coming. I am probably just going to hang out on the CM builds. As the day goes on the data is staying. at least until either the GPE rom is updated, or official sense 5 comes out.

GPE? Also, Flyhalf's unnoficial CM shouldn't have any issues with data if you're wanting to stay on CM, and only has issues with GPS. Otherwise I'd suggest AOKP. Its been pretty solid for me since the 8/3 build, and TheDanimal said there may be new build up this weekend.
EDIT: Google Play Edition. Herp derp.

haha... I actually jumped on the GPE and haven't looked back. It's so smooth. No big issues for me so far, so i will hang out for a while with it and wait for something good to come along or better. 4.3 seems to be in the works for the GPE.
