I like "gingervities" 1.1 but that's because I don't care about the 3D, I use another launcher. As much as I like visual effects, when they add too much lag, I lose interest.

Try it and let us know.

Help picking a rom

I'm having trouble deciding on a ROM to run. It seems every time I flash a new one something doesn't work: bluetooth, camcorder, etc. I like eclair but I'm willing to run a donut rom if I have to. I like cyanogen but I;ve been having issues with it lately. Can anyone recomend a fast completely stable rom with EVERYTHING working?
Wesgarner , Super-D , Enom any of those donuts are good.

Just like he said. As for Eclair, manup and ctso roms run pretty well IMO

He pointed you to the right direction. My latest running ROM, Super D is highly recommended as the one Enom offers us.
Super-D, it's the fastest ROM there is, if you're looking for performance.
However, next time please post this in the correct section (Q & A)
personally, i like the hero_over/manup rom....everything works, and it looks/acts just like the nexus one....live walls, boot animation, you name it.....only part that isnt like the nexus one is the app drawer

+1
nine ten
personally i like when people post in the correct section.....
and CM-4.2.9.1 its the most stable of the more recent ones
+1 for Super D. I used ManUp's Eclair for a minute but the speed of Super D keeps me coming back! You really don't realize how FAST it is until you switch back to another ROM or an Eclair ROM. It makes other ROM's seem slooooooowww
If you want stable, don't go for backports or ones with experimental features like WG, Cyan, etc. Tried em all. By far the most stable is dwang's.

Sooo ready for new ROMS...

I know I'm desperate lol but geez.
I'm running chingys rom pretty cool and all but I want more madness. Nothing major here.

Ditto, Das BAMF 1.3 is pretty slick.
I came from the Incredible, so I could have a different ROM every day for a month. I can't wait for this though, I figure the TB is going to bring talented devs from all over the place.
2011 is going to be sick
Das BAMF, 1.76GHZ kernel AWESOME great battery life.
Das_BAMF 1.3.1 running well here. But looking forward to trying CM7.

Likewise. I am really enjoying Das Bamf but if CM comes out I will have to try it.
plenty happy with BAMF 1.2 and the tweaks I've added to it thanks to other members here...the phones pretty much perfect. i'm more looking for themes (not skins) for sense to come out...nothing yet has caught my attention.

why sense 3.0. i wish a actually sense 2.1 rom

hi guys,
why have all the focus on sense 3.0 roms?
i prefer sense 2.1. i use at the moment the lbc 0.60 mod with unity v4 kernel
in my eyes the best sense 2.1 rom.
is it possible to make a sense 2.1 rom in mix with actually ota from htc or using the newest kernels like unity v9 or else.
thx
Mix with ota sure possible, but yet not build as much as i know.
Unity v9 you can use, anyway it fits better than tiamat, cause unity is build for sense roms and tiamat for aosp roms
I'm quite surprised that that kernel works with sense!?
Nothings wrong with Sense v2.1 and LBC IMO was best implementation of it - I've not long come from it myself, although even LBC's next ROM will be pure sense 3.0 - showing that times change and things move on!
The reason why the direction has moved towards Sense v3.0 is as a result of the official release and the fact that the devs have tweaked it so that it runs as fast if not smoother than Sense v2.1 did, with more eye candy!
They just need to work on battery life!
sorry. i'm using unity v4. i have changed first post
I agree with original poster.. i love sense 3 but i hate the carussel.. i wish there was a way to disable it and use the 2.1 method

You need to try more Sense v3.0 ROMS the degree that the carousel spins varies across the ROMs and in some is even turn on and off'able.
I personally really like the way that I can scroll in a full circle - a huge improvement on having to go left or right then stopping, but, I don't think that the carousel effect is completely necessary.

I also hate the nuisance spinning carousel. It's a prime example of form over function. If you want a good Sense 3.0 ROM where this has been inhibited, I can recommend BinDroid. It's not been turned off, just damped right down so it's actually quite hard to go into an eyeroll-inducing home-screen spin-out.
I actually hate the whole screen switching thing. I prefer the side to side switch of 2.1
Must admit I like the carousel ,rather than having to flick backwards and forwards ,it's just case of moving on around
Went to cyanogenmod and never looked back.

No, I like that feature too, but the carousel is the pretty annoying animation where by the screens just spin round in mini size! whizzing by just eye candy but pointless except use CPU and therefore burn battery!
I would have agreed with the OP a few months back
I disliked the sense 3.0 aswell. I tried virtuous unity, it was slow AND laggy.
But since then, sense 3.0 has been desgined for single core now. And it is very well optimized for pur phones.
I don't really mind the carousel.. ive gotten used to it now.
The real things I like about 3.0 are the deeper integration, keyboard new sense apps etc.
What looks.nice now is sense 3.5 want to give it a go soon!
Do any of you notice any significant changes in battery life between 2.1 vs 3.0?
I don't!

is it possible to mix 2.1 apk and widgets with 3.0? so i make my personal rom. i think i have to study "how to cook a rom"

Try VoidU, the carousel is a little hard to spin in a full circle and over all a good ROM.

Hi,
Are you unable to test them yourself?
Make a nandroid backup, flash them, and see for yourself.

that's what I say to everyone:
without sense is not an htc!....is just another phone, like others...only who have an htc deserves sense!...
I understood sense after months...is so elegant, so beautiful, useful, you got everything under your finger...fast, veeery smooth, more than all other launchers, and very stable...
social integration, widgets, animation...everything STOCK!...
yesterday I tried ordroid....I think that roms are not enough stable, even if BT is the only bug...but is awesome, very very nice feel and look...is much better than 3.6, but the launcher is a bit laggy
about sense 4.0
I used Ordroid 1.72 sense 4.0, i really like it but my battery is ending to fast, i have the newest firmware, like 12 hours and i need to recharge again, anyone knows why ?
Think Ordroid is Most stabile out there and baads IC. Besids Bt, everything is fine, But i prefer 3.6, more smooth

Which Sense 4 ROM has the best battery life? I keep switching between Sense 3.6
and Senseless ICS but Sense has a lot of nice features that no other has. I haven't tried Sense 4 yet but I hear it's much better. Don't have a charger with me all day to test right now.

To add to this, a bunch of non-HTC users can't all be wrong. I have a number of friends with various other brands of phone, and whatever other good points they might like about their phone, the one thing they most often comment on is how much they like the look and feel of Sense compared to whatever is on their phone.
Yes personal preference is fine, yes Sense is not going to be 100% perfect, but I'll take 90% over 70% any day. Who knows, maybe HTC users are a bit spoilt?

i myself definitely think that's the case...i tried no-sense and AOSP because everyone on these boards constantly complains about how slow/delayed/retarded Sense is, one member even telling me i was lying to myself and to others...though i did in fact notice a difference, in actuality it amounted to about a half second delay's difference

It's not so much the speed for me, but the visual lag. on AOSP-senseless my framerate is a constant 60 FPS, which is good, really smooth. On Sense 3.6, 4.0, whatever, I've dipped to 15 FPS before. Like, the homescreen is decently smooth but my Music Queue is ridiculously laggy.
On a sidenote, straight up AOSP is no faster than Senseless, I don't care what anyone says.

how do you feel about the user experience when running a Sense ROM but with an alternate launcher? faster/same/useless??

I've run a couple of different launchers on Sense ROMs and they are just that...different. They can be faster, and the ability to customise more (transition animations and the like) is a plus, but if you crank all the settings up and choose the most complex animations you are bound to create some lag. My first thought on using a new launcher was "wow this is so much smoother and faster" but once I started delving into all the different options I realised quite a few of those things are default and unchangeable on Sense whilst the custom launchers come a bit more 'stripped back'.
I'm currently using GO Launcher but not because I didn't like Sense, and GO Launcher has been fun but it's certainly presented its own issues. I'm actually considering going back to Sense for a while.
