I'm new to inspire roms. I have rooted my phone with bubbys one click root and I was wondering what the best rom was? Also how do you even flash a rom?
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA Premium App
There honestly isn't a best rom. Every one has their own preference, you will just have to flash them and see which one you like the most.
There is a sticky at the top of this section [guide] check it out.
The one with the bigger gb's
Theres alot of sense ROM and alot of nonsense ROM. Try cm7. IM using that one and its wonderful. To flash you copy the zip file to the root of your sd. Dont extract it. Open up ROM manager and click install from SD. I think it says that. Then check wipe data and it will install and reboot

Xaviier didn't really tell u how. Do a nandroid using rom manager. And I switch between two roms as of now. Coredroid and miui. Coredroid gives a great themed version of gb 2.3.3 (gingerbread) layered with the sense ui. Now I like the stripped rom miui due to pure beauty and interface avaliability. Not di11 and Lee I'm not dissing y'all,yalls roms are next. I simply use a rom and a few updates and allow it to settle in,then switch. I plan to use every rom to experiment speed tests,ui speed,etc. Its up to u to decide which to stick with. Imo flash a rom,fix the settings and customize any way u want. Then do a nandroid (back up using rom manager) and flash another. If a bad flash happens or u don't like the next rom,just restore. Who knows u may love more than 1

Try Ingersoll!
IknowIknow...that's like my goto answer...why not...its my goto ROM.
But seriously...if you want speed, quick response and stability...I recommend Ingersoll or dilligaf's sense ROM...both of those ROMs light up my phone.
It depends what you want in a ROM:
If you like Sense and you want to overclock, then I would go for di11igaf's ROM.
If overclocking is not important, I would go with RCMixHD 5.9 (the gingerbread version).
If Sense is not for you but you're interested in an iPhone(ish) kind of feel or you want to be able easily choose from a heap of themes then give MIUI a try.
If you're after a vanilla android flavour, go for CM7.
I generally go back and forth between RCMixHD and MIUI although I'm trying out CM7 to see what kind of battery life I can get (going camping this weekend).

I can't deicde if I need sense, so I keep flipping between inspired saga and cm7. Currently on cm7. Battery kills, speed kilks. Although the keyboard is small, it flies.

Use SlideIt. Its very good I recommend it
If you don't need Sense, at least try MIUI, if for nothing else than to know what it's like. I've done a lot of the rest, came back to MIUI because it's so damn smooth and crazy fast. It's really outside the rest of the group, but it's CM7 based. Granted, it looks a lot like the iphone at first, but if you add a launcher it's more like you are used to.
That said, if I wasn't using MIUI I'd be using dilligafs, it's pretty slick. Haven't tried coredroid yet.

I meant that even though the keyboard looks small, it is super fast and super accurate. It reminds me of typing on an iPhone 4 which is IMO one of the best touch keyboards in the market.
I also really like the ability to alter the long press duration. I know a lot of keyboards have this feature, but it is really important to me. It makes entering passwords much easier. Currently have mine set to 175ms so I barely have to stop to enter a number.

hmmm I guess sense isn't common between inspire 4g users XD.
Thank you all so much! I guess I'll give cm7 a try. THANKS AGAIN!

I love the speed, and flexibility of the CM6.1 stable rom. However, there are some parts of the Sense UI I'd like to have back. For example, HTC sync with Outlook. I do not want to pay for the third party software for that. Is there any way this can be done on the CM6.1?

Yea, I don't know if this rom is stable enough yet. I'm really just a end user not in the dev business. I like CM6.1 just wanting some (not all) sense back. Sense by itself is stupidly slow.

I can't link it atm(on phone), but there is a sense mod for cm6 that I have injected to the latest stable cm. Just search my posts.

Yes it is, but I don't think you can just install it over the final, injecting it works, but installing it causes boot loops as far as I know.

Here's that sense based mod injected to 6.1 final.
http://www.4shared.com/file/dHkLxhDV/themed-update-cm-610-Heroc-sig.html
I take no credit for this, just injected and re-posting since it's been asked for.
All props go to mrinehart93 of course for all of his work with the theme, all I did was inject it, so thanks to ASimmons for the injector also.
There is also a mod to use with Launcher Pro that makes the home screen look like sense also, it is all pretty easy to setup.

Never had a problem with that.
AFAIK, the 1.7x based and 1.84 ROMs aren't the stock AT&T ROM for the US Inspire 4G. The 1.80 ROM is the stock AT&T ROM for the US. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
Can someone cook up a US AT&T stock-based ROM with working GPS, Wi-Fi, tethering, HSUPA, Sideloading, and a nice performance boost via overclocking? Android Rev runs off of the 1.72 ROM, and Coredroid runs off of 1.84 which aren't based on the stock AT&T ROM and this cause audio issues. Though there is an ongoing effort to fix the audio for the Inspire 4G running these ROMs, wouldn't it be easier to just base a ROM on the 1.80 AT&T ROM and mod it to what we want?
It would be awesome if mike could cook based on the stock Rom for inspire.

Nice! I went through both root processes....yours and att1's to get used to them. I feel pretty confident in my abilities now to mess with it all. I would have loved to see your ROM with OC added - maybe 1.2GHz and 1.5 or 1.6GHz builds.
But don't take on too much at once man, you don't want to overload yourself. Set a pace and stick to it.
Maybe I will do it

Hey bubby I love the work you've been doing for the inspire. All of it is much appreciated by this community. I came over from a captivate and was worried about the dev situation for the inspire. As you don't have your own inspire is love to help test anything you come up. Shoot me a PM if you ever need a tester. I'm not too worried about bricking my device lol
That would be nice. I've been using stock rooted rom because of this. With stock rooted I have no issues. I just removed the bloat myself with root explorer. A custom 1.80 based rom would be nice.
I know some people have asked in the past about dual booting roms on the Inspire and was wondering if anyone had tried this yet. I just read it about it on the homepage of xda. I might try this later and finally test out CM7 or MIUI.

Pretty cool! Personally I don't really have any use for it right now but I'm sure some people will put it to good use. It would be cool if they made a way to be able to use two different kernels though.
I personally don't have a need for it on a phone
Dual booting Windows / Linux, now that's another story.

There's a catch. If you want to run a sense and an aosp , then you have to run a sense kernel on VU and miui. And that could cause problems

This is useless to me since you can't use different kernels, props for the dev's tho.... Unless i want one Leedroid for daily and one virtuous for showoff time.. man i was i could rock cm7 and dualboot sense for the camera, etc...
that is pretty cool, have to check it out when i get home.
I can boot AOSP ROMs and sense ROMs . Nandroid backups .
I already said that....Dohh.
Pretty cool but not really something revolutionary.

The kitchen can be found in this topic. Please use this post for Online Kitchen related feedback and the main MCR post for ROM feedback.
Please note that this is very much in the testing phase at present, so no warranties are made as to it's performance and it may be offline periodically for changes.

It's nice that it's free. I was disappointed to see that I had to pay initially, but I understand why. ~$14/year (USD) isn't bad for having those features, but I would probably only use it once.
Thanks Paul!
Anyone try this? Seems to not boot after flashing (flashing core first, then optional pack second). ADB Logcat shows the kernel boots just fine, but it looks like the initrd isn't being executed. Haven't bothered to flash a different boot.img since I'm lazy, but I will wait for Paul to email me back before I try anything.

Dude filesonic is worse then 4shared.

I believe that contains the set of choices that you made for your ROM in the kitchen, to be flashed after flashing the core of the ROM.

I don't think you'll be happy with an imitation launcher if you really want the MIUI look. I'd say stick with real MIUI, it gets better and better each week.
