what is the best ROM to install for rooted mytouch? - myTouch 4G General

there are so many to choose from.. i currently have RoyalGinger 2.1 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=978643) installed.
there are so many different ones and i kept the RG2.1 cause i like the way it looked and i read some where that was the best one in terms of speed and battery yet allowing full control. the only thing i want to do is change some of the colorization to the dial pad but i can live with the stock colors..
thanks for the discussion!

Virtuous Unity
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1143177
it has the new sense 3.0 inteface and is running gingerbread 2.3.3
it is based off the offical release of the htc sensation 4g from tmobile
has great battery life and overclocking program built in
by far best rom out there for the mytouch 4g
check it out
current version 1.27 released on July 4th
hope this helps

I just bought this phone used on ebay (black one with otterbox) looking forward to upgrading from my LG Optimus T (using wind mobile in Canada).
I was just about to ask this question. Any other suggestions? The suggestion above is the phone that caught my eye the most in the developers section...
Any other tips for a new user, must have software, etc...?

i 2nd this rom
ive been using iced glacier since February and im having the dreaded eMMC issues with my phone so this one is going back to Tmo so i figured id reroot it and mess with new roms before it went back
I must say the eVIL D Virtuous Unity rom is absolutely spectacular...clean interface...sense 3.0...gingerbread 2.3.3...its fast with real nice features...highly recommend it

Big fan of Virtuous Fusion (Note: While evil_d knows his way around the Glacier, Virtuous Fusion is not "his" ROM. It was a Virtuous effort, so thanks go out not only to evil_d, but to the entire Virtuous team.). It's fast. Stable. Easy on the battery. And if you flash the latest radio from the Panache (26.09.04.26), I think you'll like the results). O think it's faster and has better cell, Wi-Fi, and GPS connections. Just my own humble 2 cents.
CM7 is legitimately if you don't want Sense. Let's face it. CyanogenMod is legendary for a reason.
Again, that's my 2 cents.

Sorry but we do not allow "best" rom threads, here is why...
There is no "best" rom, everyone has different needs and things they expect from a ROM, its up to you to decide.
Also, these threads nearly always end up in a flamefest when someone says that X is better than Y.

Desire to Sensation. I feel like ive gone backwards.

I owned the desire for about a year, flirted with the sgs for a short while and now i have gone for the dogs b.....ks, ive had the sensation for 3 days!
W.T.F. The battery life is aweful, sense fc's randomly screen doesn't appear to be any better than the desire and scrolling lists is aweful especially in my favourite friend stream and news widgets etc. etc. ...
On my desire i ran RCMixS which had sense 2.1 with sense 3.0 lockscreen and it ran far more smoothly than my new device and when i sold it i first reverted it to stock and it was like lightening!
On my new sensation i ran stock 2.33 and played with this and was most disappointed but luckily, i thought, 2.34 is available so i s-offed, rooted and tried a few 2.34 based modded roms. Not impressed so i went to stock 2.34 which was marginally better but still terrible.
What is going on here, htc's flagship phone and it's streets behind the sgs that i owned (sgs 1 that is!)
I loved the sense ui but why have htc released it this state??
I woke up to the postman on Saturday morning excited (yes at my age!) and now i am one very p...ed off htc customer with another 2 year contract.
Presuming that you have made sure there are no rogue apps preventing your device from sleeping, here's the "solution" to your problem:

Maybe you nedd to do a few things to make your experience with your new phone better. I have had the opposite feelings about this phone that you mentioned. Try running this setup, its awsome on battery life and no lag!
1. Flash InsertCoin 2.3.4 v2.2.2
2. Flash the new EU radio
3. Flash the RIL .0169HMQ
4. Install Spare parts and put window transitions to "fast".
I'm running the same exact setup minus InserCoin because I wanted to run a TMOUS based 2.3.4 rom. Try it...it will help! The phone is fast as hell and stable! hope this helps!

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1202867 flash it in CWM. It will give you Max optimization for the radio. Assuming your on a 2.3.4 rom, grab the last one on the list.
If you're already using a ROM based on 1.45.401.2 and have the latest radio then you have the correct RIL already
You're out of your mind if you think sgs is better. I've used both and this is much faster. Just try the browser on a loaded website.
Gotta love these trolls.
Try ROM+Kernel associations until you find something that "fit" your phone well.
I am running Android Revolution HD with Unity v8 kernel, that's the best for me, but for some Unity v8 is very slow.
For others, InsertCoin is faster than unity whatever the kernel.
Others think Stock kernel is smoother and more reliable than custom kernels
etc
etc
etc
What I mean here is that the Sensation is weird in the way people flashing the same rom, same kernel, using the same clockwork, flashing just the same way, experience very different results! I can have 7606 CF bench points with my rom, some will have 1800 with exactly the same
Really, try again, reboot at least twice after flashing, make your opinion, try anoither kernel, if you don't like, flash another ROM
it's, in my opinion, and for the current situation, impossible to tell what rom or what kernel is the best.
Just one thing is sure for me: Sense is really not optimized, so I always remove it and use Launcher Pro instead (but some where reporting Launcher Pro as slow and other launchers fast, etc, once more it varies a lot!)

Simple, they haven't.
Either 1) you've got a duff phone (most likely) or 2) Vodafone have screwed their Sensations.
Mine on O2 is lovely, but then I've never had a slow phone from O2.
You've changed ROMs and still had issues, which suggests a hardware problem.
Flash it back to stock, take it back to Vodafone and demand a replacement/repair.

New to rooted inspire

Hey all,
This is my first rooted HTC phone (owned two others that weren't rooted) and had some general questions for all those who are rooted.
There seems to be a good number of roms out there and I'm not sure what a lot of the features each rom does, so the question I have is, what rom doesn't really overclock the phone and gives a nice stock functionality that is stable? I'm currently running the synergy rom but kinda looking to go elsewhere. I do apologize if this is a repost, again a new guy here to both the xda forums and rooted phones. Thanks for any help!
Its all about what you want outta ur rom, just gotta do ur research. I'm currently running CM7, and I must say Its stable.
I've been reading and reading and seems I just can't make sense of a lot of what each rom does..I honestly just want a pretty stock rom without all the bloatware that doesn't overclock the processor too much..thanks though for the quick reply!
You say CM7 eh? What do you like most about it?
I tend to shamelessly plug my own rom, so you could check it out.

Lmao ok guys, have you no shame LOL j/k
To be honest i really like the CoreDroid Rom. It is gonna be based on your preference though. I went through about four roms before I decided CD was the one.
If you wanna keep it stock (Im assuming you want Sense) then I would go with Android Revolution HD ROM. It has Sense 3.0 which has some beautiful widgets and pretty effects, runs incredibly SMOOTH and is VERY VERY stable and fast. You can overclock with it but if you prefer keeping it at stock speed you can do that also. Bloatware is also removed and there a bunch of performance tweaks under the hood also.
Go with 5.2.6 which can be found on their website. 6.1.0 was just released but its still a little buggy so I would wait a month or so and see if Mike comes out with an update to fix the issues people are having. I use 5.2.6 and its, hands down, the best ROM I've used.
I would definitely recommend the same Revolution ROM that Matt has recommended.
....Matt, did you ever try running a benchmark test on Revolution HD 6.1? I seem to be getting a 1500 benchmark score, but with version 5.2.6, i was getting 2000.... Seems kind of odd to me that it would regress in performance. When I overclocked 6.1 to 1.2ghz, i still only got 1800 but the phone was noticeably snappier.
I am absolutely loving the new Revolution HD 6.1.0, It has changed my Inspire into a gorgeous model of phone epicness.
I'm pretty much a noob too and wanted the same stock feel like you. I'm using ClearDroid with no issues. and with the newst 1.2.2 version my GPS seems to be working better than ever. good luck
I have literally tried every Rom that you could use for Inspire. If you want stock I would recommend either cleardroid, pirateghost, or Inspirephacopida. They are all based on stock look and perform about the same as stock if not better. If you want sense 3.0 features then I agree Android revolution is the most stable. If you like themes and eye candy then coredroid would be the one. Again its really preference. Just try some out, you will know pretty quick what your willing to sacrifice and what you don't. I do recommend giving an aosp Rom a go just to see whether or not you like it. I would probably use an aosp Rom if it had the sense camera functionality.

I to am new to root but I am also new to Android. I thought I wanted a stock ROM also until I got ahold of MIUI ROM. It has a ton of themes and you can download widgets from the market. So like others have said play around until you find what you like!

I've used cleardroid, RCmix and currently using Coredroid..and loving it. very smooth and stable thus far. As for the Android Revolution it was next on my list to try out, but I guess I'll wait a month or two til an update comes out since CD is doing everything I really wanted out of a rom right now. Sooooo happy I pulled the trigger and rooted my phone...thanks guys for the input!!

[Q] Quick questions regarding rooted Inspire 4g

SO I rooted my wifes Inspire 4g like 4 months ago and didn't do much of anything with it after the fact. No new kernel, no rom cooks or such. All stock other than a few choice root access apps.
She got a notification that their is a new update ( assuming the sense update and such) but she went to accept the update it hung in a godless limbo until she told me what happened and I did a battery pull.
SO the question is, why is this?
Is their a stock newest firmware/rom for the inspire with built in root and maybe an overclocked kernel that I can put on the phone for her. She wants her phone to run like it did out of the box with the HTC widgets but with all the updates.
Can anyone gimme some info........
You don't want to do an over the air update since your phone is not stock. It will break your root and may cause other problems. Turn off software check in menu/about phone, or decline any OTA updates. There are plenty of roms to choose from in the development section. You just need to decide which one you like.
If you're looking for a rom that is close to stock (since you stated your wife wants it to run like it did out of the box), I'll assume she doesn't want sense. Cleardroid was a great rom when I used it, but I like the sense components and have switched to ARHD (see signature). You'll have to check and see if Cleardroid allows for OC/UV and all that stuff.

You're confusing me. ClearDroid has Sense. It is Sense 2.1, but it is Sense. I do believe you were talking about Sense 3.0 or 3.5 (I have not used Android Revolution even though it was the first ROM I downloaded). But I agree that ClearDroid is a great ROM.

Cleardoid is the only Rom left, that I know of, that is still supported and uses the latest htc inspire update as a base(2.47.502.7). And yes it does and always has had sense, just like stock inspire. The only difference in the newer sense roms is the new lock screen and widgets are a little revamped. Other than that it looks just like stock inspire sense. The latest gingerbread update from htc comes with an annoying bug where contacts don't show in your messaging app, just the numbers. You have to tap the number and it takes you to the contact where you have to select a default widget action and that contacts name will show up for that single contact. Once you restart you phone though you have to start back over. I am not sure if cleard has fixed this on the cleardroid Rom. The inspire will probably never be updated past sense 2.1 by htc but there are plenty of custom roms with 3.0 and 3.5. Also the latest gingerbread version from htc is 2.3.3 where customs are at 2.3.4 - 2.3.7.
Honestly though if your wife wants it to run like out of the box I would just install cleardroids latest stable froyo build. The HTC gingerbread update brings better battery life and a quick notifications tab and maybe some other less interesting options, but it has many bugs that I have encountered that I do not like.

RumRunner 3 uses the same base.....jus sayin
Ah yes, my apologies, rumrunner version 3 is 2.47.502.7 as well.
I suppose there are probably some other devs that have used this base in older versions, but I think they have all moved on to newer bases by now.

Ahh my apologies, I tend to not be very clear sometimes..it seems however that everyone beat me to it so like everyone has said..Cleardroid seems to be the best option if you want it to look/run just like it was out of the box. I've used Cleardroid and it was a nice rom, I didn't have any issues but I really like the sense 3 components for some reason so my taste drifts towards those roms...
Thanks all of you. I decided on ARHD for her phone and she is digging it.
Peace

[Q] The best ROM ?

Hi guys. I want to know which is the best ROM for daily use ? My gf has a Desire S and the light sensor doesn't work properly during a call so it's very easy to accidentally touch the 'mute' button (or any button).
Anyway, as I am not a Desire S owner I don't really know which ROM is the most stable and battery friendly.
Thanks.
LE: Sorry for the wrong section, I didn't see the 'Q and A' section on the main page so I thought it doesn't exist at all
Hi mate,
Obviously it's a bit subjective, but I really don't think you can beat lowveld's Endymion 3.3 ROM. It's still htc sense so your girlfriend won't have to get used to a new UI, only a more updated one! I've tried everything else and I'm always back to it!
It's very stable, I've never once had any problems. Battery life is the best of any ROMs I've tried too, I get nearly 2 days of moderate/heavy usage.
But the ROM requires any partition layout (on my Desire I have 1GB ext4 on my SD card for apps) ?
I think the best ROM for Saga is Endymion.
It is very stable and best thing is that the support thread is amazing.
Not jus the developer, but also the users are so knowledgeable and helpful. It's almost like a professional support center team!!
I like Endymion too...
But i also like CM7, becuause it is much faster!
Take oxygen Rom rock solid
Best Sense-Roms (for me): Endymion and Coredroid
My choice atm Reaper 1.2 (CM7.2 based) with an older version of zeam-launcher (for scrollable widgets). Fastest/Smoothest Rom i every used, no problems noticed and the battery last longer than on other Roms.
Depends on what your gf wants. If she just wants a rom with everything straight out of the box, it's better to pick a Sense-based rom. If she likes customizing, pick CM. And if she want an iOS feel for her Desire S, pick Miui.
The problem with the light sensor doesn't sound good. You should download an app to check the values of the light sensor. You might need to send the Desire S for repair. Better wait with flashing a new rom.
For me best room is ICS.
With sense 3.5 and android 2.3.5 (ics Virtuous Quattro RC1 is almost but not enough ready for me), i prefer RunnyDrOiD By PVTEAM
Thanks guys. My gf is not a ROM freak so she doesn't want to flash new updates for her ROM every day... so I'll stick to Sense 3.5. ATM I'm downloading Endymion V3.3 ROM and hopefully it'll work like a charm . I'll post here after I flash it...
CM 7 Room
I wanna try the CM 7 Room.. wich is the best? with no bugs or problems
Check out lowveld's "Reaper" ROM, it's based on CyanogenMod but with a number of tweaks.
I switched to it yesterday out of boredom, and I'm amazed by it, it's superfast, I've had zero FC's, and best of all it has lowveld's seal of quality so you know the support is top notch!
Check it out in the development thread.
Cm7 is super fast and has a great battery life but u won't have all the sense features, so It's up to u. I'm running on endymion 3.3 and i like it very much. Think I'm gonna wait for a stable ics Rom before shifting.
Cheers

I use CM7 because it fast and clean, I don't like HTC sense at all. And with ICS roms getting more stable I will probably switch to one of those soon.
I think CyanogenMod is the best for performance )

I like Endymion because of HTC Sense and its functionality.
But I love CM7 due to its legendary performance.
Its up to your GF. But you should note, the smaller font size on Endymion does take quite a while to get used to!

Best Sensation ICS ROM so far (April 2012)

Hey Guys.
I've been ROM-ing the Sensation on and off since July.
Been on CoreDroid 2 upwards but got a bit fed up of Sense so tried a few others.
I like MIUI but if I wanted an IPhone perhaps I should have got one!
I've returned to the idea of Sense so long as its not OTT.
I'm on CoreDroid (5.1) which looks pretty slick.
Tried the ARHD rom last week and that is really good also.
Extreme Sensation Dream 3 was nice too but when I tried to upgrade (twice) to 5 I got a black start screen!
Ever since I saw the HTC One I wanted that look ... OrDroid 2 is good but no BT or Tether more importantly is a killer. When that is sorted this ROM will be cool!
Man, 4ext Recovery has really brough the ROMing thing on ... I can switch back to any backup in a twinkling.
Tremendous work from all you guys and thanks.
(I've donated occasionally and it must be time to do another one.)
Later.
Cich
HyperNonSense v2.0
Best rom for our sensation imo.
Thx. WIll give it a whirl.
I think the best rom is what I am running now:
ELEGANCIA ROM SERIES Sense 4 : build 2.3
It's smooth
It's fast
It's stable
It's looking good
It's got high performance (1.6 ghz)
Virtuous Inquesition! That's my tastes...U need to try them for u'r own likes! happy flashing!

Seriously, you've gotta try things for yourself, what works for some you may hate. I won't name anything specific but there are already a couple rom's mentioned above that I've tried and really not cared for at all, but that's just me.
My favorite ICS rom is ARHD for sense 3.6 and Ordroid for Sense 4

Well, I tried other Core Droids 3.5 through 5.0 and none has given battery life like this one. the 4g available in my area allows the phone to stream and download faster, the other ROM lagged a bit and was not responsive (multitasking). No WiFi issues with 5.1.
Just another point to add to the uselessness of this type of thread, what's the point of saying "my favorite rom is..." if you don't bother explaining WHY it's your favorite??
It's like saying "the best color is red..." or "the best flavor of ice cream is chocolate..."
My favorite...
I have tried all of the roms. I have to say I hate the sense theme, but I have to admit that sense roms are the most stable and least buggy, and give great battery life. So I started with CyanogenMod9, but it had too many bugs. Then I tried Virtous Inquisition, but it wasnt smooth enough, I even flashed different Kernels... Recently I've been using the HyperNonsense Rom's by SpIder and he did a great job. But, I took his concept and flashed ARHD, trully best rom...and flashed it with ICS AOSP theme by Schizion, and flashed faux Kernel...I have to say this is by faaaaaaaaar the best combo...If you like AOSP then I find this combo to be greatest.

i used ARHD last time but my battery life is not good..
i changed to extreme sensation dream 3 and its good.. thats what im using for more than 1 week.
now i will try hypernonsense coz i saw the free ram is more than 300+ 2.2 version with faux kernel in it.. i will try that..
downloading files...
Virtuous inquisition the most stable and good battery life for me..
Many apologies, I didn't notice it was a copy of other threads. (Spend too much time in the dev forum and not the general forum)
I really love the CoreDroid roms because they just look beautiful and perform very well.
I got fed up of Sense for a short while but the sense-less roms I've tried are quick but not as good-looking and with these roms I've used the GO suite of apps & widgets to beautify but then the rom loses its identity.
These past couple of weeks I've gone a bit wild trying out diff roms.
ARHD and Elegancia are right up there with their looks & performance.
I really like how OrDroid is coming on ... updates galore.
Extreme Dream 3 is pretty sweet but no luck so far in installing Prime 3&5
Nice to experiment as BT is not key for me as a daily but Wifi tether is for tablet use.
Sense is whyI first got a HTC phone so looking for a rom or roms that take Sense a step forward.
That's all. Thx for your time.
