[Q] ROMS

Hey all I'm currently running Core Droid on my inspire 4G and was wondering which ROM is best to use? What does everybody prefer, and which is the most customizable.
Another question is can anyone port the Liquid Metal rom to this phone from the G2/Desire Z section?

Every ones going to say cm7 but it just personal Preference.
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA Premium App

I've tried a few (including CM7), but kept going back to RCMix 5.9.x because it just works, it's fast, and it's very close to stock. A lot will also depend on if you want a 'vanilla' Android experience, or a build with HTC Sense.
If you think you're going to be experimenting with ROMs, I'd urge you to buy Titanium Backup pro. Well worth the money, it hasn't failed me yet.

I have used CoreDroid 5.4 and thought it was very stable currently i am running the inspired saga v1.1 and not only is it stable it is rocking fast and not even oc'd

There is no "best rom" and the rest of those questions are highly subjective.

I'm going to say CM7 because it's awesome and AOSP based, but right now I'm using Inspired Saga and it is pretty awesome.
CM7 Inspire 4G

I like them all. For different reasons. Currently using wuts in my Sig. Its nice and OC'd

i am using RCMix5.9 with 26.08.03.07M radio for a while,
i am getting excellent reception and battery life. no complaint

I switch between Inspired Saga and cm7.

Most customizable? MIUI, by a long shot. Very slick, and very fast too.

I'm on my first ROM so I can't really say, but it does seem very subjective. Also, I'd think the launcher you use would make a difference as well.

My question is more towards if somebody can port that rom to this phone.. The first one was just a open thought.

Ignore the haters at least you posted in the right section.
As far as ROMs go I really enjoyed CoreDroid but yet I keep coming back to CM7. I just really love the AOSP/vanilla Android experience.
Also whoever mentioned Titanium Backup Pro earlier was spot on it is a MUST have if you flash to different ROMs a lot!

I might go to CM7.. I just really hope somebody can port Liquid Villian.

/obligatory "it's a matter of preference" statement./
Personally, I used CM7 for the first month that I had the phone, then I found Ultimate Droid and have been running that since. It has some known bugs (camera FC when you try to apply a color filter) but overall, it's probably the quickest and smoothest rom I've flashed. Then again, I don't care for the Sense UI; so take my opinion for what it's worth.

I'm on my first rom too (running Revolutions 3.7).
Anyone have advice for a great (if not, the best) stock rom for inspire? I love the stock look and feel, as well as the sense UI. Downloading stock optimized right now to give that a whirl.

The best stock roms for the inspire are:
1. ClearD
2. TPC
3. the one in my sig
Sent from my dessert flavored Inspire

ClearDroid looks pretty nice. Almost finished downloading TPC's rom, gonna start that up soon as I backup everything.
Do all those roms allow installation of non-market apps? Sideloading seems a bit cumbersome.

TPC and the rom I'm using at the moment allow the installation of non-market apps. Not too sure bout ClearD's, but his for sure allows sideloading.

Weapon vs Bionix vs Cyanogen 7.1 Compare your experiences with this 3 roms :)

So I'm pretty new to this just started using custom roms yesterday only tried 2 so far.
now these 3 are the ones that have caught my attention. Currently I'm using bionix 1.4.1 seems good so far , I tried CM 7.1 but I had issues accessing my SD card storage it was either the internal data or the SD wouldn't let me access both.
now at first I just wanted something better than stock rom.. something more stable.. but now that I've gotten the hang of it and seen how easy it is to backup/restore/install a new rom is I kinda want something nice
Now I haven't tried the weapon yet because I see it was last updated 10/22/2011 now I don't know if its because developers simply went with another project orits just as stable as it can be.
I'm looking for opinions and advice on what are the best roms out there and what have you found the best working on your g2x and for what period of time.

With Weapon and Bionix, it all comes down to personal preference since they're both based of 2.3.3... But I prefer Bionic... CM is much faster and had wayyyy more features... I'd go with CM 7.2 RC 1.

So I just gave CM 7.2 another try... my home button ain't working haha trying to find if there is a setting to set it... its weird... if anyone knows anything please let me know this is a bit messed up. I get the vibration that I'm pressing it but it doesn't do anything.

ok nvm that a quick reboot fixed this.. now I am having the same issue I can't acces my sd card once I set it to use my internal storage any ideas?

So I noticed I can only access it by going through /mnt/emmc is there a way to make a shortcut for this so I don't have to manually input this to access this

Everything works great on Weapon, but it had some issues with JuoceDefender, so im using Hellfire now.
Hellfire is pretty solid build too, not that many bugs, I just recommend flashing Trinity if you're gonna use it though.

Well I'm currently trying CM 7.2 at firt boot there where aa few dumb bugs but after I rebooted everything is working great been using it for about 3 hours non stop downloading apps playing games browing just testing and from 100% im at 78% right now .
Only issue I have is that I have to manually enter the directory of my external SD to access it from the file manager it can be used by all aplications though its odd so its a silly thing I can handle
scoring 2100-2400 on quadrant result varies for some reason every time I run it but for now I'm pleased with the CM 7.2 RC1 I might backup this one and check that hellfire one.

Hellfire Phoenix 2.1 is based of CM 7.2.0 RC1,.... and it rocks...
I always liked stock CM the best, because i was always about features and speed, not to much the looks. but hellfire is aw some!
some people try to call hell a baker, or just a themer.. but its not true..
sure he maby he started out that way. but he is fare beyond that now he is making very stable Rom's that look good! he is not taking eaglesblood Roms and making them prettier anymore, he is making his own Roms based off CM source (Phoenix) or directly from google source AOSP( hellfire sandwich 1.5)
so he is now in a class with the other developers that are making and baking their Rom's off other sources just like the other developers, any one that says otherwise obviously doesn't know the whole story.
any way CM is solid, to begin with,
and hell gave it more flavor!
hellfire rocks!

you could be right... i thought the new 1.5 was based of AOSP, but maybe not, or maybe he cherry picked a couple things in there.
i might be getting it confused with the new build for eglsbld, which is deff AOSP..
but aether way its still a solid rom!!!
im still rocking Phoenix 2.1 until Hf's gets more stable.. but from what i can tell its still pretty stable as it is, but im going to wait for another release or two..

Yeah I play with the ics builds until the bugs annoy me enough to send me back to gingerbread.
Its nice having all these options with all the activity in them. Constantly getting new ROMs to flash.

for sure

Well I'm about to install Hellfire phoenix to see how it is since it's based of cm 7.2 wich I'm liking its stability.
if there are any issues with hellfire that have dumb quickfixes or any advice on it let me know

I'm been reading about faux and stuff about kernels are these installed with the rom? or how does all of this work?
I do have stock backup in case something goes wrong with the phone I can return it to warranty.
But yeah I'm a total noob I'm here to learn currently waiting the 10 minutes for the hellfire phoenix.

So far so good I'm loving this Hellfire phoenix no issues with it yet and quadrant scoring 2700 CM7.2 didn't get past 2200 I like the looks on this a lot more hopefully its as stable as CM 7.2 only time will tell but definitively if it is it's a keeper.
Can someone confirm for me if wifi calling really does save battery?

I think it does personally, also I think the kernel you're on is the faux 123 DS driver which gives you weird battery readings but better battery by 2 hours in most cases...

kernel is 2.6.32.56-cm7-faux123-049
I don't really care what I use as long as it doesn't damage my hardware of affect stability. and if better battery that would be nice
phone has been on battery I started with it 100% for 1 hour 7 minutes and it reads 95% battery I've been using it sort of frequently testing different things like camera, video playback, youtube setting how I want it downloading apps, music stuff like that nothing hard on it. but if it's reading it correctly... geez thats insanely good.
And Quadrant scored 2700... lol I was reading some kernels overclock the cpu I'm guessing this one does that? or its just that good? I have no clue I checked and it said 1017mhz so 1ghz witch is stock but I don't know if this throttles down or something like that.. again I'm not experienced at this.

So-called vanilla ICS ROMs and mobile gaming

Hi,
After about 1 year of worshiping Sense I decided to jump ship and switch to 'vanilla' on my Desire S which was a really good decision. I love the feel and every single tweak you guys make to turn this ROM experience into something great. Thank you for that.
Right now I've been using:
[ROM] | 12 JULY 12 | IceColdSandwich Perfecto-Linaro Edition | ICS | CM9 Kernel
Quadrant score is 1899 (nothing more than 1300-1500 on my previous Sense ROMs), overall performance is fluid and I'm happy with it, but... I also happen to be somewhat more than a casual mobile gamer and that's when the drama begins.
This ROM crashed (auto-rebooted) only once for me (while using Instagram), but freezes happen a lot while gaming. I know it has a lot to do with kernel 3 source not being released etc.
My question is: will switching to:
[ROM][090712]Unofficial AOKP for Desire S [BETA][4.0.4][Milestone 6][Ext. CM9 Kernel
improve gaming experience in any way, or is it just not worth the hassle with changing the ROM?
Maybe some of you used both of these ROMs. If not, many of you are much more experienced in the topic than I am anyway, so I'd be really grateful if you could provide me with some input.
Once again thanks to all the devs for your hard, passionate work, and to all the rest that test it.

This is because Icecold and other ICS and JB ROM's are based on an old kernel with loads of workarounds.
It is known that it causes kernel oops(hang) under heavy graphics(3d) and webpage load.
Low graphics (2d) games like doodle jump work well.
Tapatalked from a Desire S waiting for Kernel 3 sources. WAKE UP HTC!!!!!!

So, as I understand it, switching between these two ROMs (or, for example, CM9 alpha for DS) won't make any significant improvement, am I right? And what after HTC finally releases kernel 3.x sources (after OTA 4.0 update)? Is there a chance for really stable ICS ROMs in terms of gaming, camera working etc. on the Desire S?

Yes, switching to CM9 will not make a difference.
After kernel sources are released, it definitely will improve.
We already have JellyBean ROM's, guess if you like stock Google experience you should try JB ROM's in the future.
Who wants ICS when JellyBean is here
BTW camera works on all ICS ROM's

You can try reaper. It should be very stable. I never used it.
Sent from my Desire S using xda app-developers app

Reaper is the most stable Rom I've had in my phone, never had an issue with it, I'm quite a heavy gamer myself and have had a few fcs with ics Roms. Reaper is fast and reliable and I still go back to it during the week for work
Swyped from my desire s running blindIce

Thanks for the feedback, guys. I've gone through the Reaper ROM thread and it really looks promising. The thing is I don't know if I'll ever be able to come back to GB roms after my lick on the frosting of a particular 'ice cream sandwich'
For now I'm gonna stick to my actual choice and if it eventually drives me crazy while gaming/trying to play games, I guess I'll try Reaper.
Thanks once again!

never tried heavy games on my ice ds. well, I will soon, and follow up my report here.

I've used ICE_DS, it's as stable as a rock while gaming. Too bad I'm after stock ICS experience.
Sent from my Desire S using xda premium

I had no end of gaming issues with stock sense, inactive controls, freezing etc. Don't think I'll go back to sense regardless how much I liked it. Love vanilla.
Swyped from my desire s running Vanilla ICE v2.0

tried the CS Portable on ICE DS, working flawlessly. Also tried on aokp/cm9 , lot of freeze and fc. ah man. aokp/cm/aosp/vanilla/etc are cool,but hardware incompatible.. gonna wait for kernel 3 source thou.

Can't wait for kernel sources, will at least get some excellently stable Roms, hope lowveld makes a JB reaper

[Q] stable jellybean

is there such a thing out for the ATT skyrocket yet? On CM 9 stable right now and I am depending on my phone for daily use and task but its killing me that I'm not on the jellybean train yet. Is there a stable jellybean ROM out there yet? or at least close to it which I could use daily for now? Thank you.

the best thing to d would be to test yourself because everyone has a opinion doesnt mean youll like test and find out
and to answer your question personally i havent found one that meets stability for my daily driver.. evem though there will be one soon
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium

I've been running R4INS AOKP JB builds for a while and they're stable for the most part. Something to keep in mind about Jelly Bean vs ICS is that ICS has been officially released for the SR, JB has not, therefore JB will never be 100% stable IMO. My advice: give AOKP a shot for a day or two, or even CM10, and see if what YOU need to work works.
R4INS AOKP build can be found here: http://rootzwiki.com/topic/34092-aokp-unofficial-galaxy-s-ii-skyrocket-i727-oct-2-jb-build-4/

The roms are STABLE, but they're still works in progress. You need more patience with the JB Roms because they're working off of more generic code that needs to be customized to work with the Skyrocket. The ICS Roms are specific to the Skyrocket (with a few exceptions) so they are much more refined. I tried a few JB roms because my wife has a Galaxy Nexus and I love how smooth it is, but I keep going back to ICS roms because at the moment they are more refined. If you require more stable roms than what is out there then just wait. The Skyrocket is slated to get a JB update, and once it does and the talented developers here get their hands on it, it'll be worth the wait.

Me too. Still some jank, but overall pretty good builds. Stability is pretty subjective when it comes to basically alpha ROMs.

Its working quite well. No issues to report and if there are they seem to be fixed pretty quickly.

I've found the unofficial liquid smooth RC's to be quite stable, besides the occasional screen flicker. RC3 is the latest and I've only been running it for a day, so I cant vouch for it yet, but the screen flicker seems to have been reduced.

Since several people seem interested in turning this into a "best ROM" thread, I'll just drop this on you, OP:
There is NO stable JB ROM for the Skyrocket, period. Many of the JB ROMs out there are close, some very close, but none of them are 100% stable at this point, and none will be until we get an official leak.

There is no stable ROM for JB, you can't make it happen without official source code. Also, as long as people are tinkering, it won't be stable.

Battery life, etc
Yeah I would agree with everyone here, there is no stable ROM, I was running paranoid for a week or so, it ran good but I found myself plugging in my phone all the time. Following the threads closely you will see everyone has different problems with each ROM. Some more then others. I found it stable enough for daily use but as a developer I am probably more tolerable to quirks than most.

i found that the poor battery life seems to be due to the phone never entering deep sleep mode, which is somehow triggered when charging your phone. if i reboot my phone after recharging it, the battery lasts nearly as long as on ICS.
use CPU spy to check if your phone is entering deepsleep mode.

Cm10 just release their nightlies build the other day. I'm running it now without anything wrong. Just sluggish at time and the screen off animation works when it wants to but other than that its solid. Give it a shot

Are any of the JB roms out there for the skyrocket... uh... doing project butter? Have it implemented? I'm most curious about that feature.

Any ROM in the development section that has 4.1.1, JB, CM10, AOKP JB... actually I see like 6-8 different ROMs that are compiled from a JB source, one of the main features of jelly bean is project butter and its just giving the UI a fast transition and if you played with CM10/AOKP JB for a few days then go back to CM9 you will notice the speed difference. Project butter just makes everything snappier and quick to response which is most likely in every JB rom.

Hey, just curious, why you Tim?

As an RC I've been asked to get these threads started. They need to conform to a certain template so I write them up and post them, then I organise for the ownership of the q&a thread to be transferred to the OP of the ROM.

Thanks Timmaaa! I kept looking on this section and didn't see this tjread.
Now I can finally ask - will long-press back be implemented? It's ever so satisfying to kill apps with it.

Thats up to the AOKP team I just compile the rom for them. It should if it was on 4.3 AOKP. All 4.4.2 roms are started from scratch and coding the features to the rom which is why features are now pouring out. Ill let you know as soon as an update releasesthe specific feature.

Its been great! I haven't stayed on a ROM this long in months. For a while I jumped back and forth between various 4.3 and 4.4 AOSP builds and Sense. This ROM fulfills 95% of what Sense does, and satisfies my need for the bleeding edge.
That's not really a fair comparison since Sense is basically stock, and this is scratch built. I'm amazed at how perfect this can be on 4.4, since so many 4.3 ROMs were either very barebones or on the buggy side. No more reboots or SODs! I think my particular Evita is a little flaky and requires extra voltage to be stable. Hey, I bought it refurbished for $50, so my expectations are low.
I'm very happy with AOKP. I have a Nexus 7 2013 as well, and its very nice to have nearly identical UIs between the two devices.
If only some genius dev could crack in-line headset controls on 3.4 kernels. Maybe we can get a bounty going to speed things up

Really glad you like it. As for the headset controls I can ask around but the devs I know of for this are usually busy with their own roms etc.

Thanks! No expectations, and again, nothing urgent. Its cold in Wisconsin, so the less I have to reach in my pocket and take my gloves off the better

Thanks for your post 53l3c7a, I didn't realize that the inline controls didn't work until you mentioned it.
That goes a long way towards explaining a guy standing inside a bus shelter yelling at his expensive headset for not working (this guy)

Hey techinstein..how's it going with making this official? These builds are great..good battery life as well!

Been trying different kitkat roms for a while now, but nothinig suits my needs. Guess sense has been spoiling me. Can't help but to like the calendar and clock widgets.
But I will try this out and see how it performs for what I use this phone for. Thank you for your hard work ans look forward to updates

Yes, I've wiped everything but the internal storage. I'm using the latest build and before I had no problems at all switching from dalvik to art. Just recently I've developed problems. Could it be an app, or kernel related? I believe I was using torched latest...
