[Q] Please recommend a fast and reliable Sense 3.5 ROM - HTC Desire S

Greetings,
I looked around and I haven't quite found a sense 3.5 based rom that has everything working properly, many are having issues with bluetooth, video playback and odd problems with the stock camera app. Well, perhaps I am mistaken, I would appreciate if anyone could recommend one that is fast and reliable enough for daily use without bugs or issues with bluetooth..etc.
I'm on Alpharev HBOOT 6.xx.xxxx and sense 2.1/GB 2.3.3 and EXT4 recovery. Do I have to upgrade HBOOT ENG 2.00.2002 to have sense 3.5 based ROM working properly?

Endymion seems to be the favourite choice for sense 3.5
I'm pretty sure it's bug free
I haven't flashed sense 3.5 but I'm pretty sure you don't have to change the hboot or anything else as long as your rooted

Endymion is advertised as a sense 3.0 rom, I don't exactly know the differences between the two. Perhaps you could enlighten me please

You must not have looked hard at all.

oops..i got mixed up with the Hyperion V2.1 ROM by the same chef.

Endymion v2.1 is great!!

Really happy with the proformace of Runnymede by proxuser...
For sense 3.5 rom to work properly do go for hboot 2.*** version.

tried searching...best non sense gingerbread rom

I know there have been many threads about this, but for some reason my search is not pulling up any answers....
Just a simple question,
What is the best/most stable non sense/sense stripped Gingerbread rom?
Please note, Im not asking about CM7, ASOP, or ICS roms as I know none are 100%.
I dont know why my search is not pulling up related threads, so what is the most stable and fastest non sense gingerbread rom? I though I remember reading Virtusous was awesome, but I cant even find that...
Guessing something is wrong with the search so can you guys give me a few choices with the links?
Thanks
I suggest ARHD the gb version is perfect.

I thought it had sense, is there a version with sense stripped out?
There have been a few mods that say you can turn the sense off, but I have never tried as I love my sense and actually won't use a rom now unless it has Sense 3.5 as I like the features of that sense rendition better than 3.0.
Funny, I went through a massive search today to find the best non-sense GB rom. Sadly, HyperNonSense GB is no more and has been replaced with the ICS version. Two others, Beastmod and Senseless Extreme are hosted on multiupload, and that goddamn website seems to have disappeared off the face of the earth.
That being said, I'm back on Virtuous Inquisition, which is great, but I don't want to use ICS until custom roms are based on an official release.
I started to try out different ROMs and the "Knowledgeable Ones" said, there is no best one to point out other than trying every ROM. Man it's soooo true ! The best one for me may not even suit you. I HAVE tried every GB ROM out there and settled with "SENSEAY ROM removing the sense with No-Sense script" keeping the essential parts of sense like lockscreen but making it super smooth & i think as the development of GB ROMs are complete, further upgrade or assistance is no more needed and that's why developers are giving their time for ICS. You can use the search button for whole week looking for best ROM, but i think it will only make you more confused . Start with a ROM u like (Use no-sense script if u wanna get rid of sense), if u like it more, make a nandroid backup & try another one. U have to be the one to decide the "BEST ROM"
Use ARHD 3.6.13 and use the No-sense script. It's very speedy and great battery life to boot!

MIUI 2.2.3!!!!!
Would prefer the Coredroid 3.3 GB really stable and fast/smooth interface has a lot of tweaks also, tried others keeps FC on some application, cant remember which app but mostly the sense. Goodluck. Now im on DF ICS and im keeping my Coredroid 3.3 backup just in case i want to revert back.

The most stable rom?

Hi all.
I realize there are loads of ics roms being developed for our device. I thank the devs for putting so much effort to keep our devices worth having. But I need some advice on finding a stable rom for daily use. (Texting, camera, gaming). I have used all the ics roms on our forum and experienced multiple freezes and reboots while on my daily usage.
I was wondering which rom is the most stable yet useful in terms of functionality at the moment.

Sense 3 or Sense 3.5 Gingerbread ROMs are your answer.

Reaper for me. It doesn't have all the functionality that Endy does built-in, but you can add what you need easily enough. And it is seriously fast
Virtuous Affinity 2.05

working well for me so far.
Go launcher makes the system really slow imo.
see the difference to a butter smooth endy with sense 3.5, you will never use gay launcher (sorry ) again

Best Stable Custom Rom?

Which is the best ICS stable & beautiful custom rom for HTC sensation?
I have seen lot of roms and i m really confused.. can anyone pl suggest one or two?
Thanks
Omg there is tons of thread like this ! Im sick of this seriously it just depends on peoples taste go try a rom and see for yourself if you like it or not ...
Its like asking what is the best car to drive ..
It just depends on you..

Sense 3.6 I'd say ARHD
Sense 4.0 I'd say OrDroid or InsertCoin.
But try a few and see what works best for you as said above.

I just flashed over Ordroid a couple of days ago sence 4. I was Amazed at the available customization during flashing with Aroma installer and AFTER installation with Ordroid tweaks! I just LOVE the options available to me! Is a stable rom, I get WiFi but not tethering. But besides the tethering its AWESOME so far! So much depends on what your personal needs are but by your post it sounds like you would really love ordroid. Little customizations make it uniquely personal. I highly recommend you try Ordroid 8.6.5. Sense 4 is amazing! But what like most is the ability to custoize. I don't think you will be sorry if you choose Ordroid!

This is horrible :/ i loved it on virtuous it was very well balanced.. can a 3rd party app help ?
And htc music causes wakelocks so alot of battery drain idk what to do battery isnt so good for me and all i do is listen to music

VI v4.0.2 works a treat for me!
Stock T-Mobile Sense 3.6 Elegancia rom. ****ing awesome! 1.1.0 to be exact. It's the stock rom with nothing added, just rooted.
Would definitely recommend Virtuous Inquisition v4.0.2
If you're more of a sense person, why not try Ordroid(Sense 4.0) or InsertCoin(Sense 3.6)?
Thanks guys got lot of info abt three custom roms... Seems ordoid and VI are the best..i m not into more sense but would like to try once sense 4.0...
Also i just rooted my phone and s-offd it. And downloaded some custom roms btr everywhere it says one warning that firmware should be 3.30 or something..and i have stock firmware 1.52 something.. I guess i need to upgrade it but got confused after seeing lot of threads..

bro, if you're new to rooting and flashing new ROM, i suggest you to try ARHD first because most of the guide are using ARHD as example. i started rooting two months ago, and read most of the info from there.

Yes upgrade to 3.32 firmware BEFORE you flash any Ics rom. And yes you will love ordroid especially if you like customization! Sense 4 is wonderful! Never had trouble with it yet. But please remember the firmweare is EXTREMELY important, you will get into trouble if you try to use any Ics (4.0.3) rom with out upgrading the firmweare first. So please upgrade to the 3.32 firmware FIRST. Hope this clears up the confusion and helps! It's very important you do this without question if you want the Ics Roms. Which your saying you do. Have fun and good luck! I know you will just love sense 4! Happy flashing!

Thank you very much everybody..i updated it to 3.32 and flashed it worth custom roms..i tried ARHD and VI and both are amazing.. Battery life has been the best..i have put ordroid on download and eager to check it also..never thought it would look so beautiful with those roms... Following i have downloaded:
ARHD (5 out of 5)
Energy (not tried yet)
Opensensation (not tried yet)
Hypersensation (not tried yet)
Virtuous Inquisition (5 out of 5)
InsertCoin Evolution (not yet tried)
There are lot of roms for this phone. Wish my razr also had roms like these.

Best Sense Roms
OrDroid with sense 4.0, most bloatware removed, frequent updates, bugs HDMI out, WiFi Tether,
InsertCoin same as above, different theming
Team Pokemon, new sense 4.0, same bugs as above, however, Pokemon team has great tweaks as well as some of the best dev's, including the dev on OrDroid,
ARHD is the best sense rom without bugs, however Sense 3.6 with most bloatware removed, updating is slow, however, due to stability or the rom isn't a problem
You can try them all, you will end in the Elegancia's threads anyway!
I'd give Cyanogen Mod 9's Nightly build a try. I flashed over from Android Revolution HD and I'll never go back. The entire build is sleak and smooth. Android 4.0 brought a whole new way to see things when it comes to Android for me.

I'm looking for a stable,fast barebones senseless Rom.

I have already ran hypernonsense,hypersensation,virquistrious,cm9.anyone have any good recommendations.

Those 4 are your best non sense options.
You can also run ARHD and strip sense out of the UI. It's still a sense rom at it's core though.

just flash CM9 and strip it yourself(make a nandroid backup before doing so). using Titanium Backup, make a backup of the app that youre wanting to uninstall first, then get rid of it. keep going down the list until you are satisfied with what you have. if you come across any errors with anything, just restore the app/ROM and continue down the list. hope this helps, I do this quite often
Senseless Rom
Go to sense-O-maniac website. He has ICS senseless rom there with firmware and radio. I have the sense 4 rom and working great.

Its basically CM9 with a few coding differences. For all intents and purposes though its cm9.

Apart from the ones you mentioned (which are fast, barebones and senseless) you may try AOKP. HyperSensation or HyperNonSense are best because of their super small ROM size and excellent performance.
If you got bored with No Sense ROM's (like me Stock Sense > No Sense > Sense ) you can try ViperS 1.0.1 ROM.
Try Eyecandy AOKP rom. I heard that its fast and quite stable

just rooted and S-off, wich ROM.... ?

I just rooted my Sensation XE and got it S-off. :victory:
Installed Rom Manager and Titanium backup (backed-up everything).
Now i don't know wich Rom i would use....there are so many...
I want it to be stable, i use Go Launcher instead of Sense because Sense had the ennoying problem it was closing to free memory when i was using a load of memory. In Go Launcher i can select it to remain always open.
I would like a stable ROM wich keeps camera, bluetooth etc....all working without problems.
In addition of this question i would like to know if i can just remove Sense true titanium backup from my phone without problems? (on stock rom or other ROM ? )
I hope i put this thread in the right section 'cos i'm not used to using this forum yet
Thanks in advance for every reply :good:
You should seriously try Virtuous Inquisition very fast and stable. It's running Android ICS. But I don't know if you installed the required firmware. If not, do so.
Oh, and it's an AOSP Rom and it's senseless. Everything works fine.
Were can i find that rom and info about the requierd firmware ?

You can find the required firmware specs on the developers site of each Rom. I highly suggest trying out SEVERAL roms and see which one fits you the best.

So do yourself a favor and try out SEVERAL! Have fun and happy flashing

In my opinion Android Revolution HD us the best rom I tryed, Mike does not use portings to ensure maximum stability and speeds... It comes with sense 3.6 bit on the thread he provides a script to completely remove HTC Sense...
It has a completely stock look... It's just optimized and updated.

What are you all retarded ?!?!?!? You gotta go aosp!!!! CM9 is the best choice only retards and crackheads like sense overlay (all offense) lol
I must say that on factory ROM i was using Go Launcher because Sense got closed sometimes when I was using many RAM. Reloading Sense always took a bit of time wich I found annoying. The downside of using go launcher was the loss of the HTC widgets... Go contacts wasn't so good in my opinion. In my current ROM Sense didn't close once so for me it's perfect. It looks very beautiful and it's faster than ever before.
